The room was the bare minimum, with an awful view (a badly decayed wall), the bathroom was very poorly illuminated, the phone was mute, the AC did not work properly, the mini bar was loose, when we opend the door it comes with it, and no amenities, just a bed, a table, and a couple of chairs. The only positive point of this hotel was the heated pool and the area around it. I won't come back to it, despite the reasonable price.

Plaza são Rafael used to be a high standard hotel in Porto Alegre. It is sad and disappointing to see that the rooms are very outdated. AC doesn't work well, WiFi is very spotty, tv is not smart, it is very small and has terrible reception of the few channels available. It seems the cleaning standards are lacking I was in a non smoking room but there was a cigarette butt sitting on the window during my whole stay. Elevators are noisy and old and the breakfast is good but not near impressive as it used to be. I had a capeletti soup from the restaurant and it was tottaly bland.

Foi uma ótima estadia. Talvez uma única ressalva possa ser feita: o ar-condicionado central (sistema utilizado no hotel) implica certa oscilação na climatização da habitação. Nada, no entanto, que chegue a causar maior desconforto.

Fomos muito bem recepcionadas. Quarto limpo e cheiroso, cama super confortável, edredom e travesseiros fofinhos. Café da manhã atende bem, ovos, frutas, pães e bolos. A comida do restaurante é super gostosa e temperadinha, amamos. Um agradecimento especial ao Luciano que prontamente nos colocou num quarto mais silencioso e confortável pois faríamos provas no dia seguinte. Minha noiva fez aniversário bem no dia 21 e eles carinhosamente deixaram um bilhete de boas vindas, feliz aniversário e um chocolate delicioso para acalmar a mente e o coração. Gratidão a toda equipe da recepção que nos atendeu com tanta cordialidade, Luciano, Camila, Vinicius e Alisson. Voltaremos mais vezes.
