Fantastico
Pros:

El lugar hermosísimo, las personas del hotel muy amable, la terraza con la piscina fue genial, la vista de la terraza al frente de la playa, el desayuno delicioso.

Realmente el lugar supero mis expectativas.

Cons:

La habitación era un poco oscura, creo que podrían hacer un poco mas de claridad que habitaciones son con vista al mar y cuales no, posiblemente si le indican a uno que no es con vista al mar, uno puede elegir pagar más, pero realmente no fue algo significativo que afectará mi percepción del servicio.

A nice location in central Copacabana beach with good breakfast and comfortable rooms.
Pros:

The beachfront location, comfortable bed, good breakfast (my daughters loved the fresh orange juice each morning) and helpful staff all added to our positive experience.

Cons:

Curiously, many of front desk staff struggled with restaurant recommendations. They really need to create a “best of…” list of various restaurant types and cuisine options. This is obviously a tourist spot and tourists frequently need vetted recommendations.

Hotel que valorizamos por la calidad del personal.
Pros:

El personal era muy amable y atento. La playa frente al hotel es muy linda.

Cons:

No tienes espacios comunes grandes lo que hace difícil estar en hotel fuera de la habitación, ya que fácilmente el lobby está lleno y los pocos sitios ocupados. Al baño le faltaba mantenimiento (poca presión del agua, lavabo que se trancaba, el picaporte flojo)

Great beachfront stay with wonderful breakfast and friendly staff,just needed better floor sweeping.
Pros:

Excellent beachfront location, comfortable room, and very nice, welcoming staff. Breakfast was very good each morning, featuring a wide variety of fresh fruits, healthy home-cooked style dishes, and good coffee.

Cons:

My only complaint was the floor cleaning: the floors were not swept thoroughly, so we could still feel beach sand underfoot in the room.
