Pros: you can't ask for a better location in Rio. The apartment is modern and updated. Hot water in kitchen and bathroom.
Cons: There is no direct sunlight and no way to get some air in. The result is a constant moldy smell, despite the AC. So the solution of course would be to open the windows to get some air in -- however, the main reason why you can't open the windows is that they face the dumpsters of the entire building, which is itself a large building.
If you are alone or a couple, that is mostly fine. But with a very small child, as it was our case, it becomes almost a health issue.
