We arrived in Rio on a rainy evening. Marion informed us beforehand that she would be on a working trip and her friend Federigue was there waiting for us. She also helped us to arrange a taxi to the airport when we leave two days later early in the morning.
The apartment was situated on the quiet hills of St. Teresa with a lovely view. Upon the main gate entrance going down to apartment is a small room that has a single sofa-bed and a small 1/2 bath. Passing through the small room is an open area with kitchen and dinning table. The ensuite bedroom is accessed by a small metal spiral staircase and the view there is even better.
However we think the small room is too small to accommodate two persons. After we laid down the mattress on the floor next to the single sofa bed there's hardly any room to stand. It would have been better fit for one person.
Furthermore, I'm sure the open dinning room/kitchen would have been lovely on a sunny day/evening to enjoy the natural environment but on a rainy night it can be chilly and humid.
