The place is in a good location, convenient to Ipanema restaurants, beach , and gym.
The apartment has a nice view, but the apartment itself feels outdated. The pictures make it look much better than when you see it. We found the bed uncomfortable ( very hard ) and sink in the primary bath did not drain properly. We did not find the living area conducive to spending a lot of time given no air conditioning in that room.
Besides the location, the positives are a nice kitchen if that is a priority, and having the extra bath is nice.
