NIce view

Nice view, but the hotel needs some work (major work)a motel 6 is nicer!!! Some members of the staff (e.g. [...]) act more like if this hotel was a Russian prison than a beach hotel. I enjoyed more my last visit at the Copacabana Palace (price wise they are almost the same).

Perfect location on the Copacobana Beach

We spent two days at the beach, one day city tour, one day Corcovado. The city is chaotic and not very clean. Then, we went to Amazonas, that was an experience
