    The 2nd lift was broken for the majority of the stay, so getting to the room was taking considerable time. Also, on the first day, the lady at the breakfast wanted me to pay for it again even if it was included in price. After an argument, she checked with the reception, who confirmed that it is included and that no additional payment is needed. This check should have been done before arguing with me. No apology for the behaviour nor the attitude was given either..

    Lovely room, good breakfast selection, amazing location, clean and comfortable.

    P level is fairly low, you have street noise and no view Room was rather small, and for this quite expensive

    Prime location in Ipanema, close to restaurants and commerce but still within minutes from the beach. Renovated room on P level, especially large bathroom Nice staff support

    The rooms are not well soundproofed - from outside or neighbours.

    The noise from other guests the room I stayed in was not very sound proof so you can here a lot of noise so if you want a good night sleep definitely make sure you opt for a soundproof room , also safe was not working and access card needed to be reactivated frequently

    The location is great as you are right next to the beach with a short walking distance , the staff are really helpful and welcoming also . The breakfast is nice too and the bar area

    The only thing that bothered us was the noise coming from the air ventilation unit, but having been around in Brazil for a while now, I guess that‘s just how it is and you can‘t escape it. The facilities could have been a tick cleaner for our taste.

    Best possible location you could stay at, for first-timers in Rio. The area is very walkable even in the evening. Going to the beach also works very spontaneously as it‘s a 2 min walk from the hotel. Breakfast was rich in options and very tasty. The Staff made us feel like we were taken good care off and always there to support us. Big thank you to them! The room is also very comfortable and has a good layout. Was cleaned daily.

    small room but ok. building / renovation works going on above me, went a bit late.

    Nice room, not huge and no balcony. But friendly and well run. The bar on the ground floor is a great place to hang out at night, good music and atmosphere. The best thing is that it’s in a busy, well lit and safe street, with all the shops and services you need close by. (the beachfront two blocks away doesn’t feel so safe at night)
