It’s a very basic apartment, but with great location. I would recommend for a short stay and a couple. However it can be dangerous if you’re travelling with a child and not good enough for longer stays.
What I liked:
* Host quick on responding to messages
* Walking distance from the beach
* Near the metro station
* Host flexible on leaving time with a few conditions
* Good quality curtains that block the sun well
* Good wardrobe space
* Small room by the entrance worked very well to keep luggage, shoes and clean feet before going into the apartment
* Downstairs area in the building was big and had lots of sitting area
* 24/7 doorman
What I did not like:
* No water filter in the apartment, which is very uncommon in Brazil
* Door handle to entrance not working
* Toilet didn’t lock
* Window didn’t easily close securely
* Chips on furniture in the living room
* Damaged flooring in the hallway which hurt my foot
* No windows in the living room so no natural light and bad air flow
* No door to bedroom
