Very nice and clean hotel which is centrally inconveniently located right in the heart of Copacabana. It's directly across the street from the beach and in the vicinity of great restaurants. Although you can dine at the restaurant on site which does have good food, you can also venture out to other local spots. The hotel is very clean and smells very nice. The staff are very professional and kind. The hotel room was very nice to stay in. I loved that the water pressure in the shower was very strong. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and I would highly recommend this location.
