My 3 brothers and I stayed for a week during world cup, and we felt really comfortable and secure everytime. The apartment has a perfect location (2 blocks from copacabana beach, subway station just crossing the street, taxi and bus just geting out the building, a supermarket beside the bulding, lots of bars and restaurants really close to the place) .The apartment is just as described in website and both rooms are fairly comfortable. The apartament is just refurbished. It also has a Great bathroom, and a perfect grill. Ana Paula and her housband were very friendly and attentive with us. They received us with dinner, and they prepared a nice breakfast everyday. They provided towels and all restroom accesories, i feel this was a great detail. Also you can use the washing machine and all electrical appliance freely.
Ana Paula and her family stayed in an apartment next to ours and allways were worried about us.
