My hotel is in Av. Atlantica 1470 Copacabana and the bus route goes all Av. Atlantica from Prca. Isabel to Joaquin Nabuco, so it should stop on my hotel block or so I understand. Now the question is, is it recommendable (and safe) to take the bus at that time? Sunrise is at 6:22am. I'll be walking from the corner to the hotel, I guess, with just one baggage (2 people). I guess it's ok, but it's good to ask the experts... (how long will be the bus ride? let's suppose I'll take it at 6am, at what time I'm supposed to arrive at Copa?)
Or do you recommend other transfer? I was checking taxi rates and it's like US$85 for 2 people, or maybe I checked the wrong page
Thanks
