Chez Zany - Copacabana is quite close to Copacabana beach (5 min walk), close to metro lines, bus lines, a lot of restaurants and markets. You will find anything in Copacabana. we are pet-friendly, vegan-friendly, lgbtq+-friendly, netflix/hbo/prime friendly and chocolat-friendly. if you are looking for a place to stay longer, we recommend Chez Zany - Santa Teresa. we designed as a home hostel: a place for you to experience being a local in Rio. With a well equipped kitchen, work area, and with a huge terrace.
