The neighbourhood was a very nice, busy, safe neighbourhood. Very well located (5 minute walk to Copacabana & 2 minutes to the metro). The apartment was clean although at times it felt a bit small, but that was okay since we spent most of our day out in Rio. Tatiana was extremely helpful, she gave us so many suggestions on what to do around Rio and what to see. Her mother also lives right around the corner which was very convenient, and she seemed like a wonderful lady. It was a very nice stay in this apartment.
