This studio apt. was perfect for our stay in Rio. April 2013. The apt. reviews from others that stayed here are accurate. Henrique answered all our emails promptly. It was nice to have his driver pick us up & take us directly to the apt. Having fresh fruit along with food & drink in the fridge was a perfect start to our vacation. We were given a bag of gifts & tourist guides to help us get started. Internet worked very well. The best part was the mattress. It was very comfortable. The air-conditioning worked well & was quiet. The window covering made the room very dark if you wanted the room dark to sleep. Of coarse when on vacation it is all about location & the location was perfect. Less than a minute walk to Ipamena Beach. The market is just a couple blocks away. I would highly recommend this studio apt. for any couple or single person. Thank-you Henrique
