Great hotel and location with fantastic reception staff. The only reason for marking it down a rating is that the wifi was terrible; my partner needed to do business meetings online but it kept cutting out & stuttering. Even simple browsing was very very slow.

Great location, breakfasts

The location is excellent to visit the tourist sites like Pao de Azucar and Christo Redentor - short rideshare trips. Loved the breakfast at the restaurant on the 1st floor. The room we got was good for 3 of us and had a sofa bed. We stayed in this property two different times. The bathroom in the 2nd visit was not so clean, was out of body soap.
