The location for this Airbnb is spot on. The Sunday and Tuesday markets in Ipanema are right outside, and the apartment is surrounded by restaurants, food markets, and grocery stores.
It’s very convenient to have the washer in-unit, so I took advantage of this throughout the month I was there.
In terms of long-term stays, I do recommend being rather busy outside of the unit. The WiFi is great, the apartment has the necessities, but I found myself getting cabin fever in the space after working from there all day. Definitely only space for 1-2 people, max.
Overall enjoyed my stay and the personability of the hosts :)
