Right on Copacabana beach!! Amazing location, easily walkable, several grocery stores nearby, felt comfortable walking around at night. Stayed here with kids. These units are in an apartment building, with a security gate and 24-hour desk at the front door. Very kind and lovely man at the front desk; he didn’t speak English and we didn’t speak Portuguese, but we communicated just fine and he was very sweet. The room: had an incredible view of the beach (ocean view)!! A/C did not work very well, room was always hot and muggy. Kitchenette: 2-burner gas (!!) stove, tiny sink, small selection of dishes. Sink leaked onto kitchen floor. Bathroom: tiny, but got the job done. Had to buy our own bath mat. Beds: sheets and pillows didn’t seem clean; we were only there a couple days and didn’t bother to mention it; the room was so inexpensive we figured all you’re paying for is the view. Wifi worked well.
