Great Location

Great hotel if you get upper floor with the view. I got second floor with the wall view at first, but was able to change it in the afternoon. Breakfast is great.Lots of all kind of fruits and natural juices,and everything else.Great view (and caipirinha)on top floor-swiming pool area. They have a guy with the chairs and umbrelas on the beach, that is just across the street, what is really helpful if you go for a swim.

Traveler's tip on recreational activities

Bring nice walking shoes and walk with the locals. Nice walk on Copacabana and to Ipanima.
