On a shoestring? The best budget hotel find in Rio (remembering that there are a wealth of clean and reasonable one- and two-star accommodations throughout the city) is the Edificio Jucati. This 55-unit hotel is a leisurely 15-minute walk or five-minute cab ride from the heart of Copacabana Beach. In return for the extra distance, in-the-know visitors get full kitchen apartments that fit up to six people at truly bargain rates.
