Book a room here and you’ll be just a few minutes’ walk from Copacabana Beach, with Ipanema Beach also with walking distance. This hotel is in a great spot for enjoying a Rio city break, as many other attractions are nearby too.
positive:
Clean and tidy throughout the premises.
Housekeeping do an excellent job of keeping this hotel spotless, so you shouldn't find any faults with the standard of cleanliness in the hotel. Expect bathrooms to be sparking and your room to be made up each day.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Some air conditioning units are noisy and faulty.
If you find that the air conditioning in your room is not working correctly or it’s particularly noisy make sure you report it to reception. It seems the air conditioning units are not being maintained properly here so some are becoming faulty.
negative:
The walls are thin, so noise travels easily.
You could be disturbed by your neighbours at this hotel because it’s easy to hear what’s going on in the room next-door. Also, street noise can be a problem if you’re in a room close to ground level.
negative:
Property is started to feel a bit tired and dated.

This hotel has certainly seen better days and is starting to appear a tad old and tatty. Little is being done to spruce this place up, so some refurbishment work would make a huge difference.
