Horrible experience! Check-in Experience: was poor, we arrived early and the front desk agent did not check us in, he asked to come back after 3pm. When we came back from a tour around 5pm, the new agent was upset because we did not check in before. Air Conditioning Issues: The next day, the air conditioning in our room was not working. After calling the front desk, we were informed that the issue was with a central unit serving the entire hotel, and they could not offer us a solution. We were told “we all needed to share the heat” and wait. The next day when I asked for an update, we were simply told to wait again, which was unacceptable. After we noticed the air conditioning seemed to work at night but failed during the day. The nights were extremely cold in our room. Unprofessional Behavior by Manager: On Sunday morning, my friend and I were returning to the hotel after Carnaval, and the manager, Fernando, screamed at me. I did not understand he was addressing me, and he then proceeded to whistle at us in a manner that was both disrespectful and degrading. This is absolutely not an acceptable way to treat any guest. His behavior was unprofessional and completely inappropriate. The location was excellent.

Este hotel necessita de obras urgente, porque para um hotel de 4 estrelas ele está muito distante desta pontuação e para área onde está localizado justo na Avenida Princesa Isabel que faz parte da entrada e do cartão postal de Copacabana é muito pobre …😳😳😳😳😳

I was checking in and my friend, who was helping me with my lugagge and needed to change for her flight that was leaving two hours after I checked in, was coming with me to the room and the front desk told me she could not come up, that I could not have guests. I have traveled to 40 countries and never have been told that I cant have a guest in my room for two hours! When I asked for my manager, they called someone and then said they will make the exception, but very weird and unprofessional. Then, decided to go for a farewell drink to the rooftop and when asked the front desk again to keep my friend lugagge cause she was leaving, they offered to leave it by the door; cero friendliness and service!

Very good but a bit aged. The delight was a hotel fridge that actually did the job. The only downside really was the overwhelming security presence - even to the point of guarding the yoghurt at breakfast.
