I had a great stay at Andreia's place. She was very communicative during the whole process. She was very accommodating for my early flight into Rio. Staff was friendly and responsive. The apartment was very comfortable for my stay. The location is excellent as I was less than 5 minutes away from Leblon Beach which is a great beach to be at. There are also many restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacies, and gyms nearby. The area felt very safe to me and wasn't too loud or busy. There was a subway/subte very very close if you desire that type of transportation. I took Uber every where I went and it was easy. This apartment is a great value and you won't regret your decision if you book it.
