The location is great (about a block) to enjoy Copacabana Beach. Breakfast option is great at Pao & Companhia nearby. Plenty of options for lunch and dinner near the building. The metro station (subway) is your best choice of transportation in the city. The host Hirata helps you around town with information. The place is very small but very clean. You cannot get a better value for your money in Copacabana.
