I spent eight days in Patrick’s apartment with my mom and it was perfect! It looks exactly like the photos, even bigger. Clean, bright (you don’t need to turn on the lights during the day), secure, comfortable and has everything you need, even A/C in the room and living room.
Patrick also have a really nice taste for decoration and literature, his library caught my attention and it’s full of great novels.
The view from the balcony it’s really nice, you can see the dawn and the beautiful lights from the dusk. And because it is one of the top floors, you don’t hear much noise from the street.
The location it’s perfect, just five minute walk to the beach and subway. There are plenty of small shops and supermarkets near by, also restaurants and bars.
Patrick was really heedful and solicitous, even though we haven’t had the chance to meet him, I can say he’s a great host, he was always reachable and answered to our messages within minutes.
For me was also a plus the high speed internet connection. I brought my ChromeCast device and I was able to enjoy Netflix and Spotify without problems.
The only thing I would change would be the fridge, it was too small for us.
I highly recommend to stay in Patrick’s apartment, if I ever come back to Rio I definitely will.
