José Carlos was quick to respond, and flexible with check in and check out. He allowed us to add a second car in the secured garage which was extremely helpful. The location is absolutely perfect and the building is secured with 24hour gated security. The size of the apartment is amazing! There was a washing machine and two patios. Every room has air conditioner and a TV. In addition, the building has a park for kids, a beautiful pool which we didn’t use since we went to the beach and a lovely sitting area which is beautifully landscaped with ponds and flowers. I will definitely be recommending Jose Carlos apartment to anyone I know visiting Rio and I personally am looking forward to renting his apartment again in the future! Thank you Jose Carlos for your hospitality!!! We absolutely loved our stay!
