Awesome hotel
It was a great stay. Comfortable room, clean, ac worked great, service was phenomenal. Mayra was very attentive. The pool was clean and nice. The rooftop views are beautiful. They allowed us early checkin and late checkout which was great. Breakfast was excellent with lots of fruits, made to order omeletes and tapioca, pastries, yogurts, juices, etc. Location was perfect for us and we felt safe staying in Copacabana. Restaurants, market and drugstores nearby. I did Uber the whole time. Had no issues and loved visiting Rio. Ps. I am Brazilian but was visiting from the US.

No microwave in the building at all. Can’t use any light unless your room key is in a slot on the wall. I also stayed with a friend and she had personal property stolen that’s what made me give a negative review.

The property was very nice. The people were great. The room was averaged sized. My only complaint is that although I am a VIP with expedia I did not receive a room upgrade. My view outdoors was of nothing.

When I asked about availability for an upgrade, and noted I was an Expedia Gold member, I was told I needed to pay for any upgrades. Then we did and our floor smelled like mold. After 2 nights, the wall right outside our room was opened up and covered in mold. The room was made up every day but the floors were never cleaned. Being at the beach, there was a lot of sand. Fine stay, expected more.

As a solo traveler, I initially felt a bit apprehensive about staying at this hotel, but my experience turned out to be wonderful, and I would highly recommend it to anyone, especially other solo travelers. The staff was exceptionally kind and welcoming, making me feel safe and comfortable throughout my stay. Although I had the unfortunate experience of having my phone stolen at the beach, the staff went above and beyond to assist me, providing clear guidance on the steps to take. The food was truly delicious, with the breakfast buffet being a standout feature. While the pool is on the smaller side, it doesn’t detract from the overall experience. All in all, I’d give this hotel a solid 9 out of 10.

Everything you need is walking distance. The vendors are great. You are right on the beach. The beach front restaurants are fun and you are a minute or two from walking to downtown restaurants for more local food. The breakfast was AMAZING and the staff very friendly. My only compaint is the lunch/dinner menu at the hotel. I ate dinner there once and I was not pleased but there are so many other dinner options right there.
