On the morning of my Airbnb check-out, I wanted to search for nearby luggage storage places to see if I would be able to squeeze in a little more adventuring before heading off to the aeroporto. That is when I found Selina through a Google search and app / site called Bounce. You can make your RSVP through their website - select the time, date, and number of bags you plan to check. The cost is per bag but depending on how much you have and the size of them, I would definitely say it was worth it for me. I dropped off my large suitcase, duffle bag, and carry-on while keeping my backpack with me. It was R$30/bag and it's good for the entire day's stay. They require a pick-up time when you make the reservation online, but they don't have a strict pick-up time since they're there all day. This is also a hotel - they offer wellness programs such as massages and offerings like tattoo appointments. There is free wifi, a restaurant / cafe, seating areas w/ tables, a mini store that had snacks, apparel, accessories, travel / toiletry essentials, and more! Two very clean restrooms are available for use on the main floor. After dropping my baggage off, I sat in the cafe and had some breakfast while I figured out where to head off to. I ordered the Brasileiro - pão de queijo, suco de caju, café, ovos, frutas, e tapioca com queijo pancake. They have outlets around the shared space so you'll be able to charge your phone and whatever else you may need. I will be coming here again in the future should I ever need a place to drop my bags off and I had no where else to keep them. Lovely staff members both in the cafe and at reception. There is also a shuttle that takes off from the hotel to the airport, but they leave at a certain time and they only drop off in one area once at the airport (not sure what area that is - the guy didn't quite know, but I didn't want to take a risk of being late for my flight so I took an Uber plus I didn't want to potentially walk too far with all of my stuff once I was there because that wouldn't have been fun if the distance were to be far from my terminal. I would have done it if I had a later flight! The cost was about R$50-55 and my Uber ride was R$99,11. read more
