This place is sweet! It is located a block from the beach which you can see from the windows and decks. Jandira had someone there to welcome us and also she herself stopped by to offer some helpful tips on where to eat and where to go out. There was an issue with the washer/dryer -- Jandira explained the guests before us broke the machines with sand. She did offer to cover laundry which was nice but we did not take her up on it considering out trip was short enough to get by.

The building has a few weird rules and it does not seem like the doormen and the host are on the same page about some of them. We used the trash chute as instructed but were told by the building we were doing it wrong. Also, if you come home with groceries or sand on you, you have to use the service elevator in the back. Also, no toilet paper down the toilet--and they mean it! No shirtless entries from the front of the building.

Again, the place itself is AMAZING and Jandira keeps it homely and decked out with amenities. There is a sound system and all accommodations needed for a group of 6 or 7 (we were a group of 6 with a friend who stayed for a couple of nights).
