Luis was very responsive to my inquiries and requests. The apartment met my expectations, and offers a very good value. Its location between Ipanema and Copacabana is very convenient and desirable. The apartment is on a high floor and offers a lot of light and air, while also being fairly quiet and private. Since the apartment only has a small kitchenette and does not have a true living room (just dining area), it is best for a single traveler or couple, and those planning to spend most of their time enjoying Rio outside of the apartment.
