Orla Copacabana Hotel

8/10 Good
"Our experience at this hotel was good overall. The room was clean and in decent shape. I loved the shower water pressure it felt like a small water cascade. The construction noise outside the hotel kept us from sleeping late during the first few nights at the hotel. The pool (very cold) and the gym were small although the view from the terrace was beautiful. Staff was usually helpful and our breakfast server William was kind and greeted us every morning with hot coffee and a smile. He made our stay much better...Obrigado William!!!"
