The location is perfect for visiting Copacabana, checkin was relatively easy although you have to give them a pretty close time frame which was different because you need someone there to let you in initially. We were a little disappointed with the amenities, the fact that the beds only had a sheet and a blanket on them is sub par. Also, they only give you one towel per guest and we rented it for a week which was not preferable. Also no beach towels, the only beach items they had were two chairs. The pool table is not a standard pool table and does not have a rack for the balls. Also beds are pretty uncomfortable.
