Though clean, these rooms feel worn. Sofas look like they’ve been sat in too many times, and throw pillows appear flatter than pancakes. Dated rooms, like the Carioca Queen we saw during our visit, resemble the waiting room for a doctor's office, with drab taupe tones, cheap furniture, and stock photos hanging on the walls. Even standard rooms have separate living and bedroom areas.
Rio doesn’t take the “All Suites” part of its name lightly, and rooms start at 600 square feet. The good news is that all rooms are massive.
Rooms at Rio are a mixed bag - some are nicely updated with bright furnishings and funky decor, while others are dated and bland.
