The hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from the city center and surrounded by great restaurants and attractions. The room was spotless, with a comfortable bed and a relaxing atmosphere from the moment I walked in. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly, prompt service—every request was handled with care and efficiency. It felt personal, not just a transaction. This experience was truly exceptional, and I can’t wait to book again. If you're visiting Rio, this is definitely a top pick.

The apartment was clean and well-maintained overall—exactly what you'd expect for a comfortable stay in Rio. It's spacious enough for six people, with all the essentials: a cozy bed, functional kitchenette, and a small living area perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The location is convenient for getting around by metro, and there are plenty of local shops and eateries nearby. A few minor issues popped up, but the staff handled them quickly and without hassle. If your main goal is a quiet place to rest, grab breakfast, and enjoy some evening TV, this property delivers. Solid choice for a budget-friendly, hassle-free stay in Rio.

The location is fantastic—just a short walk to the beach and super convenient for exploring Rio. Communication with the platform was smooth, and check-in was hassle-free. The apartment has everything you need: clean linens, towels, a stove, microwave, and more—very practical for a stay. However, the bathtub is definitely a weak point. It’s outdated, stained with grime, and not very hygienic. Removing it could actually free up space and improve cleanliness. The air conditioning is a bit noisy, but honestly, the street noise is so loud that it drowns out most other sounds anyway. To make matters worse, the windows are extremely old with no sound or thermal insulation—there’s even a two-finger-wide gap at the top and middle. As a result, sleeping is only truly possible between 10 PM and 6 AM. Outside of those hours, it feels like you’re sleeping on the sidewalk with constant traffic and city noise. If you’re a light sleeper or sensitive to noise, this might not be the best fit. Still, for the price and location, it’s a decent option if you’re okay with some trade-offs.

Staying at this Rio Spot Homes Varanda U049 unit was a real highlight of our trip to Rio de Janeiro. Just one block from Copacabana Beach, the location is unbeatable—walking distance to the sand and clear views of the ocean from the spacious balcony. The apartment is on the 9th floor of a secure high-rise building with on-site staff and metal key locks, giving peace of mind. Check-in is done via phone, WhatsApp, or email—we just notified them in advance and paid a 150 BRL cleaning fee plus a 40 EUR deposit upon arrival. The place is well-equipped for self-catering: there’s a decent-sized fridge, two induction burners, and plenty of cooking utensils, including two frying pans (though they do tend to stick). However, the dishware is limited—only four mugs and four shallow plates. Cleaning supplies are basic: a large bottle of dish soap and a small sponge. Bathroom amenities include one small bottle of shampoo and conditioner each, but no bar soap. One downside: the toilet faces an adjacent building, so we had to hang a towel across the window frame for privacy. The bedding can accommodate up to three guests, but we were warned about previous reports of bed bugs—definitely recommend bringing repellent. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you want a beachfront vibe without the premium price tag. Great value, great view, and super convenient for exploring the area.

This stay was absolutely fantastic! The location is perfect—just a short walk from the metro and surrounded by great restaurants, shops, and attractions. Everything about the hotel felt clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. The only minor downside was the shower pressure, which could be better, but it didn’t interfere with my overall enjoyment at all. I appreciated the quiet atmosphere, friendly staff, and the excellent value for money. If you're visiting Rio and want a comfortable, convenient base with a true local vibe, this is a top choice. Highly recommend!

The staff at reception were incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in smooth and stress-free. It’s perfect for solo travelers, couples, or groups of friends—everyone is made to feel welcome.

It’s not just a hotel—it feels like staying in a beautifully restored family home with personality. With its unbeatable location, great value, and genuine hospitality, this place easily earns every point on the rating. Highly recommended.

The service, staff, rooms, and breakfast were all excellent! I highly recommend this hotel—100% satisfied. We stayed in a standard room (the most affordable option), and it was surprisingly comfortable and well-appointed. The location is fantastic—close to public transit, local restaurants, and attractions, plus the area feels safe and welcoming. The only small suggestion: adding a small rooftop terrace or swimming pool would be a nice touch to elevate the experience even further. But honestly, everything else is spot-on. This place truly delivers value and comfort—definitely a top pick for anyone visiting Rio.

The hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from Copacabana Beach and all the local attractions.
