Staying in a good neighborhood in Rio does not mean you have to spend a fortune. There are a number of moderately-priced hotels right in the the heart of the South Side. All properties listed on this page are in a walking distance from a Beach with a capital B, good nightlife possibilities, shopping, transportation, and all conveniences. Rooms for double occupancy are quoted around US$85 per night or less.
Budget hotels are mostly medium-sized properties, ranging from 50 to 200 rooms. You do not have to sacrifice any of the basics. Count on air conditioning, a private bath, phone, color TV, small refrigerator and closet with safety box. A few also offer cable TV channels in English.
You may miss facilities like a sauna or pool (there are exceptions). You will definitely not find any hotel in this price range with non-smoking floors, a gym or a state-of-the-art business center. On the bright side, some have rooms with a postcard view to the beach, a balcony even a bath with a tub - not necessarily in the same package, of course. Breakfast may or may not be included in the rate.
highlights of each area. Booking at least a couple of weeks ahead is always a good idea even during off-season periods. Budget hotels are the first to get sold out for events like Carnival and New Years

Thanks for the info. Im off in September but I'm a real cheapskate at about $20 a night so I'll have to keep looking.
