"We are in Manaus at least yearly. The Choice Hotel Manaus was a pleasant stay and we will probably stay again. Three minutes walk to the Manauara Mall is a strong draw and they charge for it. Compared to other Manaus stays, the Choice Hotel stands out for cleanliness, room maintenance, responsiveness and professionalism of staff, no musty/mold/mildew in room. The room was utilitarian and comfortable enough, well-cooled with good air circulation so fast drying bathroom, etc. Bed was supportive, neither too firm nor soft, linens and towels were spotless and replaced daily. Housekeeping is better than average and all areas of the hotel were spotless. Copious hot water and great water pressure. The room, though a bit dated, was fully functional despite some worn surfaces. Wifi is good for light streaming but not fast enough for intensive remote work. Hallways and elevators are not air conditioned and get very warm at times but the room's A/C was strong. Pool was clean but the sauna was decrepit and needs to be replaced. Breakfast was just good. Good: fresh juices, bacon, fresh fruits, made to order couscous, tapioca, and omelettes. Poor: pre-made scrambled eggs were inedible and soupy every day, the baked goods were few, pre-packaged, and often dry or stale. Competitors costing far less than this Choice Hotel (Millenium, Ibis, Da Vinci) offer far greater variety and much better quality pastry, cakes, rolls, and breads. Choice can and should do better."
