Very noisy... from the sound of the waves crashing! So, nice noise. You will sleep really well here. High above busy Copacabana, the city fades away and all you hear is surf. Comfy mattress. Great vintage touches, like an antique beer poster and beautiful wood. Good gas shower. Internet steady and decent speed. Tiny kitchen, but with everything you need to whip up a quick meal. Beautiful little balcony. Geraldo is a fine host who obviously cares for his property and keeps everything well conserved. Building seems well-run too. Zero problems in 2 weeks, a super stay.
