Taj Mahal Continental Hotel

Reception and cleaners were polite and friendly.

Shower broken, leak in ceiling from above, Wi-Fi doesn't work, lift failed when inside had to climb out as stuck between floor, furnishings as old as the theatre but less maintained and reception were overworked.

Location and employees and watermelon on the breakfast were good

This hotel is too old. Maybe 50 years ago this hotel was good, but now - no. In our room WiFi didn’t worked and administrator gave us new room. But in the new room: - A/C remote control didn’t worked (they bring new one). - floor with spots. - the door handle to the room is broken. - Not all switch lighters is worked. - Not all sockets we’re working. - the rooms totally require remodeling. - breakfast. We came and there were no plates, no spoons, no forks, no knives, plates with food is almost were empty. Employees saw it and only took away dirty dishes. Only when I’ve asked about plates they gave us. Breakfast is common for Brazil: omelette, sausages, bread, cakes, pies and there were no vegetables

On a busy day we arrived early. Mrs. Lavina, the manager promised the room for 2pm. by 3.30 we learned she forgot. So we left for lunch and shopping. Back by 7pm, still the room was not ready. Finally got a room at 8.30 pm, no AC. What a mess !

Good location near the plaza and nice view on higher floors

Its filthy, you almost don't like to open your bags.. ants spiders cockroaches. Ok I understand it's in the tropics so you get company in the room but felt I had more then in other hotels. The cleaning ladies probably did what they could, but it needs improvements.
