I stayed with m 2 kids in a family room. The hotel was good value for money, right in the beach front and had everything we needed. Rooms are not huge but for a couple of nights it's was sufficient. So just to note there is no air conditioning and no fridge in the room.

The room was simple and colorful. Boho vibes. Really clean and comfortable. Lots of pillows. Staff was great and accommodating. The location is 1min from Copacabana beach which is awesome. Copacabana tends to be loud due to the live music, and I could hear a bit, but the hallway and corridors were quiet. Will definitely recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

While check in staff were nice, friendly and knew English, it was so good. Location was so good, cleaning was ok, equipment was not so new. But the biggest problem was, I tried have breakfast in the hotel 2 times, and nobody were knew English. And it was an horrible experinence. I can say the biggest negative thing was this

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I've stayed in over 100 hotels and hostels in multiple continents and I can say that this was confidently one of my worst experiences. This was a terrible experience. At first, I had an issue with the room type which as an error with Expedia, but the property was not helpful in trying to solve it and they were not understanding at all that there was an issue. Then, the elevators take an average of 5-10 minutes to arrive because the building has an awful structure. Then, the AC wasn't working. I had to change rooms 3 times (which they were very accommodating) but a good part of my stay was solving the AC issues. It gets very hot in Rio and they made it seem like it was my fault for wanting a room with a normal temperature during the summer, even though the rooms are supposed to have AC. The breakfast is extremely hot too, the view is spectacular but one can't enjoy it in a hot week. Some of the people working there are really nice, and some want to make it clear they don't want to help and just want the day to be over. I don't think this property would be bad in times of the year when it's not too bad and everything goes right. But if it's hot or if you need help with anything, this is not the place to go.

Much better than expected

What a lovely place! It was way better than expected. First of all, very nice staff: "papi chulo" and "mama chula". Service was friendly, with humor and ON POINT! The hotel is right on Copacabana beach. Great location! And the hotel was nice and clean. Better than the photos. I got a private room with the bathroom outside, but it was no problem as it was clean and always empty. Felt like I had my own bathroom as it was just outside of the door. Nice rooftop restaurant!
