I needed a place to stay in Rio so I could visit family and friends and was super happy with my choice. Excellent listing, wonderful location. The owner Daniel is very accomodating and a great host. Very positive experience, highly recommended if you want to just wake up and go to the beach, it's only a block and super safe neighborhood night and day.
I also would like to add that the apartment had everything we needed and even a brand new heater, so the shower after beach time was amazing. Plenty of options of restaurants and other business with everything you need on walking distance. Definitely coming back next year!
