Very clean and well located apartment in Ipanema, 2 blocks from the beach and lots of bars and restaurants. We didn't meet Philip in person but communication was great, and his assistant welcomed us and was very helpful. We were 3 people staying in the apartment: 2 were in the very nice and large bedroom and one had to stay on the sofa in the living room as the other bedroom is very small and an adult cannot really fit into the small bed. Staying in the sofa was however comfortable enough so we recommend this place.
