Delma was waiting for us when we arrived. She and Leo (who speaks English and lives in the building) showed us around the apartment carefully explaining how things worked. They had bought some fruit, milk, juice and cookies to welcome us.

The apartment is modern, clean and was comfortable for five us us. The kitchen is well supplied with pots and pans and dishes so we cooked many meals there. It isn't a big kitchen, but it has what you need. The beds are comfortable and the bedrooms have good closet space. There is a washer/drier and an inner patio where you can hang up your wet suits and towels to dry.

The location is perfect, close to Avenida de Nossa Senhora, which has all the stores that you need to buy groceries, banks, movies, clothes, etc. The lovely Copacabana beach is one block away. I would highly recommend this apartment to others and would be happy to go back myself.
