The apartment is strategically located between Ipanema and Copacabana beach. You have restaurants, bars, pharmacy and supermarkets with in a 5 min walking distance. Ipanema beach is only two blocks away from the apartemnt and close to posto 8.
The apartment is perfect size for two couples traveling toguether. Inside the apartment every room including the living room has A/C if you find it gets too warm. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you would need if you decide to stay in and have breakfast or dinner at the apartment which we did a couple of days.
Overall i would stay at yans place if im ever in Rio again. Had a great time and enjoyed his apartment.
