Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The hotel is more beautiful in pictures that in the reality. The building needs maintenance. The service is ok, but you can easy see that the people don not try to give more than what they have to do.

The hotel location is fantastic - just a short walk away from Copacabana beach. However, the building could be better maintained. Our bed was clean and orderly but the room showed definite signs of wear and there was mold on the bathroom ceiling.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The room was dated but clean. Not enough bath towels and no face towels given, even after repeatedly asking.
I do not recommend this hotel at all, it is very old, outdated, staff is very rude, unprofessional, no amenities other than towel, breakfast option really bad, the around areas is really dirty, very busy traffic not a lot of good options where to eat. DO NOT GO BASED ON THR PICTUES IT DOES NOT COMPARE.
Room was adequate, had the basic amenities. Nothing special. But the rooftop pool was very nice. All staff friendly and great services. Breakfast was very good, a lot to choose from. Dinner was adequate but for the money you pay is decent.
