The location is excellent - beach right across the street, lots of food options, police outpost right on the corner, great connectivity if you take an Uber.
Rooftop pool and view (especially sunset) is a bucket list experience. The restaurant on top is great, and the older gentleman working in the rooftop bar is the dearest! We loved him!
The rooms are beautiful and recently renovated and beds are comfortable. All receptionist speak nice English.
Breakfast has good options and you can enjoy it with the view to the Ipanema beach.
One thing is they can seriously improve about the breakfast is about how they preserve the warm dishes. While the food is kept in those metal dishes which are floating in hot water, the staff on purpose keeps the lids open. The food is basically cold (eggs, sausages, bacon), and even if you dig under, it comes as luke warm. We tried closing it a few times, but the staff comes and reopens them, for display I guess. Completely defeats the purpose.
