I stayed for almost a week at this property. It is located in a great location on Ipanema beach and only has about 30 rooms--all suites. There are a lot of great restaurants and stores behind the hotel and it is relatively safe compared to other areas of RIO. The staff was very friendly...
My only complaint: I was billed for items not purchased. I was told that I opened and kept music cds in the room (never saw them), we were billed for a full buffet breakfast when we just bought a soda and paid cash (buffet was free anyway). We were charged on our credit card 3 or 4 times for the same meal in their restaurant...
