The staff were excellent - welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived, Amazing included breakfast. Pool could have opened earlier or breakfast finish later as it was a rush to both have a morning swim and breakfast. Very convenient location close to Metro

It's convenient and I would consider staying again. It has plenty of restaurants, pharmacies, etc. nearby. Staff is polite and helpful. It's also a 7 min walk to the Copacabana strip.
I got a basic/standard room on the 2nd floor and it was not the greatest, but the hotel overall wasn't a bad stay.

Not a great hotel. Pay more and get a nicer one
Not a great hotel. In the US it would be a 2.5 star motel. Too many issues to count like:
- Bad WiFi
- Gym horrible as small, dangerously bad equipment, hot
- Noise from street passes through thin windows
- Black out blinds do little and light floods the room
- Warm water barely came out of sink faucet.
- Old hotel and it shows.
- Bed super hard
- Location good though And breakfast buffet good.

Bad rooms
This is a terrible so called 4 star property. The beds in room are extremely uncomfortable with smoke smell all over. Wifi is choppy and you have to go to reception area for better coverage. I would easily rate it as a 2 star hotel and wouldn’t recommend if you are looking for a truly 4 star hotel experience.

The conditions of my room were at a low level and not to a 4 star considering also the rate they ask (More than 160$ per night)

There is no designated smoking area which is horrible for non smokers. I felt like I was suffocating when I tried to relax by the pool. Staff is welcoming. I’m a little disappointed that the shampoo and conditioner was empty in the shower upon my arrival.

Stay away do not book
This location was nothing as discribe or listed as a 4 star hotel. This is at best two. From mold on windows and fixtures. With the smell to match. The bathroom down was water damaged and wouldnt close and the room didnt even have a quilt with only a single top sheet. The hotel is extremely dated and run down. The rrof top pool only had two lounge chairs to service over 100 plus room. The staff were unwilling to and said they have a zero cancellation or other rooms available. Not sure how other have even give this place a positive review.
