Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro
overall it was OK, checking process was not great, at one point I had no hot water (didn't need to report it fixed itself), the hotel is very noisy, the room I was in is at the back of the elevators so can't sleep much and staff was friendly but not very helpful. personally I would avoid staying ...
