Staying at Jose’s place was exactly what I was dreaming of based on the photos: bright, airy, stylish, comfortable, extremely clean, well organized, good vibe, and well equipped, not to mention extremely well located, being one block from Ipanema beach and half a block to the Main Street where you can find shops, restaurants, padarias, exchange houses, and bus and metro stops.
The property has good AC, full cable including channels in English, a new clothes washer, strong shower water pressure, excellent internet an amazing comfortable bed and pillows and premium towels and sheets.
Guest tip: Surprisingly, even though the unit faces a street, close the window covering and close the bedroom door and the room goes really dark for a good, quiet, night’s sleep.
