7.6/10

The hotel has a cozy atmosphere with comfortable rooms, but lacking some amenities like a kettle. The bathroom with a jacuzzi is a nice touch. The service is a bit hit or miss, with some staff being very friendly while others are not very helpful. The location is unbeatable for enjoying all that Copacabana has to offer, but the dining experience could be better despite a decent breakfast spread.
