Rose is an incredible host and her apartment made our amazing stay in Rio even more enjoyable. The location is perfect; 10 minute walk to the metro, 1 min to Copacabana beach, 2 blocks from the buses that take you to Christ the Redeemer, and has all the amenities you would need within very short walking distance. It felt really safe, especially with a doorman 24/7. The apartment itself was really clean and Rose has thought of every possible thing to make the apartment ideal - she even stocked up the fridge with drinks, and provided snacks for us! Rose also helpfully provided detailed information about what to do, see and eat in Rio. She is so friendly and made us feel really welcome. Definitely will stay there again next time I’m in Rio!
