This was our third stay at Ipanema Inn. We like this hotel a lot. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. It is also located in a very good place in Ipanema. One block from the beach with lots of options around the hotel to eat out, shop, and other activities. The food they serve at the hotel is good too.
