San and Erik were very hospitable hosts. San was waiting for us to arrive, and helped us tremendously with our luggage, info on where to go and eat, and even more so on where to stay at the next day. He contacted us the next day to check if our stay was good. The apt was spacious and would fit 4 guests. I would recommend it for a long period of time. Perfect location to either hang , or walk to the beach and lagoon. San is an extremely professional Airbnb host who goes out of his way to ensure a high level of quality and cleanliness. His apartment is a gem in Ipanema for the price. Its conveniently located to everything in Ipanema one block from the beach. If you are looking for a no hassle experience with no surprises, stay here.
