The apartment was as described and pictured. Immaculately clean, well maintained, what appeared used only for airbnb purpose..so noone appears to live there. This leaves you free closets and bedside table..clean fridge etc. Location was also perfect. A short block away from the beautiful Impanema beach. Plenty of restaurants on this street. If you want an inexpensive tour or book a shuttle back to airport go to the hostel next door. You don't have to be a Hostel resident. Great communication from host both by whassup and email.thank you Jose.
