Overall hotel looks nice. Location is excellent if you are not looking to be close to Copacabana. Front Desk staff could improve by at least smiling. They were so serious. Breakfast was excellent.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel has a nice lobby, period. The corridors to the rooms smell bad (mold/ humidity). During my three days the same McDonnalds bag (with food) remained in the garbage can in the corridors. The rooms are old, walls are stained, floor scratched etc. The shower was good though. All and all not a great stay!

Despite being in a nice location it’s not trivial to reach the beach in front of the hotel. The combination of red lights and underground pedestrian passage is not close to the hotel. Breakfast is very good and the hotel as well as rooms are quite clean. The rooms are a bit dated and are showing their age, including on the Executive Floor.

Do not stay in this hotel!!!
Staff does not speak English. Fitness room did not have towels and water. Even worse the ac was not work in there what made impossible to workout with an inside temperature of 100F. I need to change rooms as my first one had short circuit. I paid for executive room and got this condition.

We liked the accessibility to shopping and transportation. However, very disappointed with the following: Only 1 bath towel for 2 occupants. No wash cloths provided. No shower gel provided but plenty of shampoo. Electric kettle, cups and saucers, but no tea bags or coffee, no creamers or sugars. No listing in the room of numbers for restaurant or front desk. No menu for restaurant. No listing of local attractions/eateries/malls. NO IRON OR IRON BOARD! We had to BORROW and were admonished to return it in 40 MINUTES!!
