This property was just okay. The interior really needs to be updated. The pictures online are either outdated or pictures of a new room that I was not in. I thought there was a pool, there wasn't. The area seemed to be safe. I loved the fact that it was literally a couple of minutes form Copacabana beach. The breakfast was just okay as well. You get what you pay for. My experience wasn't terrible, i'd stay here again.
Hotel bom, mas com toda a área de lazer fechada há 10 meses, sem qualquer informação sobre quando fiz a reserva. No calor do Rio de Janeiro a piscina fez falta. Fiquei chateada!
Centric location, close to pharmacies, food places etc. Walking distance from the beach. Overall, clean areas, comfortable bed and quiet. Great buffet for breakfast. Overall, it was a great experience, and it felt safe. The staff were nice.
The room looks outdated, but everything works properly.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I liked the convenience, the hotel location and the staff were amazingly nice.
I didn’t like or better, I wished the room came with a iron for clothes, toilet brush and the stick to unclog because it clogged twice and tv remote was dead.
Infelizmente, minha estadia não foi boa. A piscina estava fechada e não podíamos ter acesso ao terraço. Não houve qualquer tipo de aviso prévio. O quarto não era parecido com as fotos nem de longe.
In general it looks like a decaying premise. The room was spacious with a king bed, not required from me. No adequate space for sitting to work with a computer. Only one very rustic very high small table with two much above the average sitting benchs very unconfortable and dangerous to sit. Television had very few cable channels and the worst ones. In summary I would not recommend this hotel even for an enemy.

It was located in a great location/neighborhood but the room was very noisy.
The location is grate. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The property is very nice, however they advertised having a roof top swimming pool that was being refurbished and was not available.
Save your money and run for the hills! They present pics as a kind of cool boutique hotel but it is in shambles. The bathrooms have mold, floors dirty, construction everywhere. You have to pay to leave your luggage for a couple of hours even when they didn't have the room ready. Another couple of clients had the same situation.
