Valerie's flat is wonderful. Very well located just behind Copacabana beach and 10 minutes from Ipanema. Beautifully decorated inside, very clean, spacious, modern and the rooftop terrace is a luxury. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby too. Valerie was a very attentive host and spent a good half an hour explaining the area and listing things to see and do on a map for us. We hope to be back soon!
