We had a wonderful stay. The apartment had a stunning view of the lagoa. We felt safe and it was conveniently situated so that we could walk to Copacabana or take a cheap taxi. Valeria answers your questions promptly and was flexible with our time of stay. We requested an extra night. The apartment was clean, air conditioned, the beds were comfortable, rooms had buit in cupboards and we had plenty or room with all the amenities we needed. The tv could be viewed in English and it was wonderful to have free wifi so we could research places to go and keep in contact with family. We were 2 couples and a baby of just under 1years. We would highly recommend the accommodation.
