If you want to be in Copacabana, then you will be happy in this apartment. There are very few apartments as spacious. If you are gay and want to be in the heart of gay activity, you would probably prefer to be in the center of Ipanema. The master bathroom is located outside of the master bedroom while the guest bathroom is located within the guest bedroom. The apartment has mirrors everywhere which may or may not be to your liking.
The person who takes care of this apartment and responds to all of inquiries/requests (and lives in the attached dwelling next door) is a gem. She is helpful, responsive, and pleasant.
