Plaza Hotel Manaus - 马瑙斯

The location did not make us feel secure although the hotel itself seems okay in this regard.

The beds were average, with the bath and bed linens okay, but the pillows were rectangles of foam.

Roaches are a fact of life in Manaus - but even my reasonably well-travelled boyfriend was not prepared for the enormous one that we caught next to our bed that night.

After I didnt answer the phone any more and wnated to sleep they hotel apparently gave some of them my room number and they started knocking on my door.

The room we stayed in had very little windows and so was dark.

The worse thing about the hotel and the room is that it was very expensive for what it was as we paid about $70 U.

Breakfast was a pretty big buffet of tastless food.

Most of the staff generally seemed uninterested in providing a service.

But thats not the real problem, what really disappointed me is that they ha prostitutes hanging around in front of the hotel who harrazed me as a single male travellers without any request for their service.

The hotel made it wore as they first gave them my phone number and i got couple of calls late, where they offered their services.

The staff forgot to give us a television remote and when we returned to ask for one they told us that they had run out.

They allow you to use the pool facilities in the Taj Mahal.

We even saw the sad remains of a pool area.
