For me the room is clean, they serve nice and decent breakfast. However, there are some fruit flies so they better do some pest control. The previous reviews are true, their towel looks dirty. I think the management of this hotel does not listen or does not really take action on people's review. It is about time to change those towels and get a new one. Based on the hotel's name, the. owner is Japanese. Japanese are not known for being stingy. So throw away those towels and buy a new one

Infelizmente, ao final da minha estadia tive uma experiência muito desagradável que me fez decidir não retornar ao hotel.
Escolhi o local justamente por ter estacionamento, boas avaliações e transmitir uma imagem de segurança. Porém, quando precisei retirar o carro da garagem sozinha (meu marido já havia ido embora), o funcionário responsável pelo estacionamento foi extremamente inconveniente: passou a me chamar de “meu amor”, “meu anjo”, insistiu para que eu baixasse a janela, encostou no meu carro e fez comentários desnecessários sobre minha estadia, finalizando de uma forma que me deixou bastante desconfortável e até com medo.
Além disso, percebi que havia muitos adolescentes hospedados em excursão escolar, o que também gerou preocupação em relação ao ambiente.

Bom
Me hospedei com a esposa já pela 2ª vez. Custo/ benefício compensador. Pequenos problemas comuns, tais como falta de manteiga no café, TV com imagem ruim, ambiente externo meio sinistro também. De resto, é bem satisfatório

Sempre que preciso ficar no Rio escolho o Saionara, pois é bem localizado, tem farmacia, mercado, padaria, restaurante tudo praticamente do lado do hotel.
Sem dizer que a sua localização tem saida para todos os pontos turisticos do Rio.
