Carlos was a great host. He responds timely. And I'm in love with the apartment. It best suit my lifestyle. It's 10 minutes run to my gym. It's few mins walk to my favorite buffet restaurant 'Grill Inn', few minutes walk to the Copacabana and Ipanema beach. Restaurants and drugstores are nearby. What can I ask for more. That being said, I decided to stay here for 2 weeks and possibly even more.
