Amb. Occulusion creates pixelated render, how to fix it?

Hi everyone, how do I get rid of the pixels without turning amb occlusion off? 

Thanks in advance for your help. (I'm a beginner)

in the attached screenshot the top render is with occlusion and the bottom one is without, I like how it makes the corner of the walls darker and, therefore more visible. That's why I don't want to turn it off.

It's not pixelated, it's just noise from the render settings not being low enough.

Try setting the 'Noise threshold' to '.001' or something low. It will take longer to render but do a region render and slowly raise it. The idea is to get a clean render with no noise and just as the noise comes back, use those settings. 

Also, in the 'GI' settings, try 'Brute Force' for both the Primary and Seconday engines. 

Last, here's a link that might help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E27g4Mt1x28
