Copacabana beach. It is prime location and the building security staff is polite. It is located only one or two blocks away from supermarkets, bakeries, restaurants, exchange houses, and even a clinic to have your rapid COVID antigen test done before going back home. Vanessa is a true gem and the best housekeeper in the world. She keeps the place clean and neat and will do almost anything to assit you from buying groceries and cooking. I only have two things to regret: I wish I could have stayed longer than 9 days and leaving Vanessa behind. I would definetly stay with Patrick next year when we come back to RIO!!! Thank you!!!
