I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While I enjoyed the incredible views and the spaciousness of the room, I found the decor a bit dated. The dining options were delicious and generously portioned, but the service was hit or miss. The location was decent, although a bit of a walk to the main attractions. Overall, it has its perks, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

The hotel offers a spacious and modern atmosphere with a lovely private beach and fantastic amenities, including a large pool and diverse dining options. While the staff was incredibly accommodating and friendly, the location feels isolated from the bustling areas of Copacabana and Ipanema. The rooms were comfortable but could benefit from more cleanliness. Overall, a great choice for relaxation, but not ideal for exploring the city without a taxi.
