Overall just an OK stay. Would I go again? If I can’t find better
The good
The location is great for Copacabana and Ipanema There is a 24h concierge. Hot water shower water pressure was good. There is good air con. Small fridge and toaster in the kitchen. Communication with the property owner was good
The bad
WIFI is not stable not sufficient for remote work video calls. The hallways are noisy and noise is coming into the rooms from apartment doors. Overall the building is extremely dated and needs a refurbishment. Everything is either broken, old or worn. The gym looks like from the 90s, the sauna omg. The pool on the 1st floor is ok, the sun chairs all worn out and or broken. The bath room had mould on the ceiling
Feb 2023, large construction site next to building extremely loud noise and vibrations during day time till 5pm. I wouldn’t have stayed if it wasn’t just for one night that we needed. The construction has just started excavations and is easily looking to last until 2024
