Nice apartment, a few blocks away from the beach. Communication with Vitor was very easy, the flat is very clean and functional. The area is very lively, in the heart of Ipanema, with a lot of shops and coffees and bars around. That said, this is not a very quiet apartment, because it's in one of the busiest street of Ipanema. But for friends who want to enjoy the city and go out, this is great.
