Daniel is one of the best hosts I've met! He's very communicative and helpful since he is a local resident. His property in Ipanema is on the top floor of the apartment building so you get an amazing view of Ipanema. The unit is well stocked and clean with modern furnishings. We also enjoyed the Nespresso maker which was a very nice touch. The location is also extremely walkable to the beach, shops, and restaurants. It's also a quick Uber/taxi ride away from other points of interest. I'll definitely book again if in Rio!
