Jucati Season Apartments

The location was quite very good in some ways - in a noiseless location and it seemed quite safe too. I wasn't afraid to walk around during the night on my own. It was also close to a metro station and 3 blocks from the primary streets; very good for the juice bars, banks, eating places and buses. The apartments are basic but spacious and clean and you really feel really safe, which is particularly nice for your first couple of nights in Rio, especially if you are on your own. The staff on the front desk were often helpful and also spoke very good English. Net access was handy and not particularly over-priced, though local web shops are less costly of course. I arrived late during the night and they had no issues with me paying over the next couple of days. I got the impression I could have just paid at the end of my stay, so don't worry about having cash (they don't take cards) ready for your arrival. Also, I read another review that said you should pay in dollars as they will give you some random exchange rate to Reals. To be honest, I didn't find that an issue and, if you draw cash in Reals, you will lose out just as much in fees converting that to dollars anyway. Just pay in Reals - much easier. Far better still, email beforehand to confirm your daily rate in Reals if you need to be sure. Having the apartment cleaned every single day was nice, along with fresh towels, as nicely as the bed changed every single 3 days was fine. Overall, I would suggest the Jucati apartments for the location, the safety, as nicely as the amount of space you have. That said, renting apartments (if that's what you want) from individuals through certain other websites, can be less costly and get you some thing better too. Shop around. You do get a very good rate through hostelbookers though - mine was 115 Reals per night compared with Jucati's own rate of 150.

The staff was so friendly and helpful. The location was clean like a mini hotel. Every day the room was cleaned and also the towels and bars of soap were replaced. Those little points were really nice bonuses to the fact that the location was huge and clean for what we paid.

The staff at the front desk were brilliant throughout our stay. The rooms were also very spacious for the money we paid.

Very clean and pleasing surroundings. The fact it was an apartment was excellent, Rio is extremely expensive so the ability to be able to cook was great. Also they have filtered water inside the kitchens so you can drink it!
