The apartment looked exactly like the pictures. It was very clean, comfortable, modern and chic inside. All the appliances worked well, including the shower and air conditioners, which is very important if you are staying in Rio during the summer! The host (Ricardo) was extremely helpful. He arrived at the scheduled time, explained in detail how all the appliances and amenities (including Wi-Fi) worked, and the check-in and check-out process were very quick and efficient. He also gave me some great recommendations and tips regarding Rio and the area. The apartment is in a great location, close to the beach, restaurants, and shops in Copacabana and was a great value for the price. You can walk to most of the places you want in Copacabana and it was also convenient to get a taxi from the apartment. I would definitely recommend the apartment to other guests and would stay there again.
