The restaurant
I did not like the swimming pool was crowded and some times during the breakfast the restaurant was so crowded

7 / 10Good·Nov 2025
Taking into consideration the price of the room and the service offered/breakfast included, I think it is not a bad option. The same kind of hotel in Copacabana or Ipanema would be the double of the price without being cleaner or better. The service is not optimal, maybe because there is less staff for the number of guests but people at the reception were friendly and supportive with us.
Even being at a walking distance from Escadaria Selaron and the center of Lapa, is not a safe neiborhood during night and you will always need a Uber. Service and cleaning could be enhanced but in general taking into consideration the same ratio between place and cost, it is a good one. We only spent one night and then we decided to move in a very nice AirBnb in Santa Teresa.

The rooms were really clean and the facilities were really nice.
Food was terrible. A lot of food, but not really good. We had food poisoning after eating there.
