They do not change the bedsheets, they also do not clean properly. There’s was no sweeping or mopping done during my stay
This hotel is advertised as 3.5 stars but is really a two star hotel by usual international standards. The rooms are run down (not like the modern images seen online) and the room wasn’t clean (sand on floor, grimy bathroom, mould). There was also no mattress protector, just a sheet which I find quite repulsive. The usbc port on wall also broken. When I advised reception they loaned a plug in charger however when I went out that evening, someone came into my room and took the charger which made me feel really uncomfortable. I also needed it for duration of the stay. The breakfast was reasonable and they provided gluten free bread which I appreciated.
Worst stay in my entire life. Paid for an executive suite, got an awful twin room. Wasted an hour checking in dealing with lies and incompetence. Hotels.com intervened to secure a refund/discount and have also failed - despite the hotel managers false promises.
Great place to stay in Copacabana. Beach is just a walk a way including easy walk to Ipanema and Leblon. If you like to relax and swim at the beach or even a day tour of Rio, this is a great place to stay.

The rooms where clean and spacious. Nice utilities and a good location.
The Management do not care to look into the condition of the each and every room. Almost all rooms have poor bathroom conditions, an arrogant maintenance person, etc. If they want it, with small investments they can change it dramatically. The location is fantastic (just 200 ft from the Copacabana beach) !! After the improvements, they can increase the rates and make money.
Well maintained hotel, close enough to the beach many restaurants in the arounds. My breakfast was included, it was healthy and with options, good way to start the day. Front desk guys and bell men always helped. Cleaning ladies always smiling. Good option for short stays.
This is a decent hotel but located on the end or fringes if copacabana and the area is sketchy and not safe. I was personally robbed 1 block away from this hotel. Would not recommend for that reason alone.
