Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro
Spacious, clean room with nice views. The pool, bar, and views from the rooftop were spectacular. The hotel is a bit dated but, at the same time, gives it charm. Staff accommodated a late 2pm check-out. The breakfast was excellent. An easy walk across the street to the beach.
