SLIM São Paulo Congonhas

The staff were excellent and very friendly. A special thanks to ALEX, who stayed calm under extreme pressure and was exceptionally kind and devoted to customer service. I stayed with a friend for a week at the beginning of November. Our room was comfortable and clean, with comfy beds and a great shower, and it looked out over the runway threshold. Breakfast had a great range, and the restaurant food in the evening was very good.

It's not expensive, seems safe, and is very well located near the national airport. Some of the staff are really friendly and helpful, especially Marian at the front desk. The rooms aren't bad, either. But the hotel itself is rather depressing, and it gets noisy when so many guests slam doors.

From the upper floors at the back, you get a good view of the airport. Even though it's nearby, the hotel is quiet, since flights stop after 22:30 and don't start again until 06:00. Breakfast is a decent buffet, and there's a nice selection on the evening menu.

Check-in was slow and confusing, and the small, awkward room wasn't clean enough. The toilet had very few amenities, and the shower was the smallest imaginable. Breakfast was so bad, with such slow and inefficient service, that I left almost all of it untouched. There are better affordable choices around the Sao Paulo downtown airport. Overall, poor accommodation and service.
