What I can say? Rio is certainly a beautiful place. The sun was constant in the sky, hot weather and panoramic view justify it's place of top places to visit.

In terms of the apartment, we were quite satisfied, it was everything we expected and I think the owner knows, and has catered to the market we would fall into. It was air-conditioned (essential) and was very well presented and kept. Two television which was probably unnecessary however, we never used them. Hygienic showering facility and probably an inadequate kitchen for chefs but suitable for two people who snack occasionally!

Its situated right on Copacabana beach, it was approx. 3-5 minute walk and for us, this was perfect. Of course it's surrounded by local amenities, restaurants and shopping districts which Levy kindly pointed out.

Overall with our 10 day, 9 night visit to Rio we were very happy!
Thanks once again to Levy for helping us out, he certainly has a vast amount of information pertaining to Rio, and looks out for his visitors best interest!
