6/10 Good

Great location at Copacabana. Nice rooftop with restaurant and a small pool. But not a place to hang out all day for chilling and swimming I would say. The brakfast is good, but busy. Check in was not very friendly. I got to my room and it smelled very strong of cleaning products, my bed sheets were wet in some places, the pillow had stains and it was noisy because there was no insulation to the hallway and I was next to the elevators. I asked to change rooms but wad cut off and told house keeping would come with new sheets. The next day I was joining a group booking so I had a new room. This room was nicer, but the bathroom was very smelly. Overall disappointed with this hotel.

More a 2.5 star hotel - centrally located, quiet and close to the beach - next to good restaurants like Joaquina - area a bit rundown - personnel/service average with a few outstanding exceptions - overall good value for money for the holiday season.

10/10 Exceptional

A lovely hotel just one block back from the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean. The roof top bar and pool are great. My only slight negative is the staff at the roof top bar weren’t very friendly and I had to go to the bar to order food even though they were just stood around chatting. Reception staff were great.

I love the location, so close to the beach, very nice roof terrace although it is small. The only disadvantage is the reception which has only a few members of staff so we had to wait one hour for check-in.
