Carlos is a wonderful person. He was welcoming and very attentive on our arrival. His apartment is exactly as per the pictures on Airbnb. Very comfortable, clean, and well decorated including all the necessary amenities. We loved the white leaning, comfortable pillows and white fresh towels! The apartment is in the best location possible; a quiet street, with a super market nearby, 24hrs security, a short walk to Ipanema and Copacabana Beach and many good restaurants, bars and shops. We hope to return soon!
