Beautiful place in a great location, literally minutes from Copacabana Beach and everything accessible - Uber is incredibly affordable in Rio.
Loads of great restaurants, bars and fast food around! A supermarket is a 2 minute walk (if that).
Place comes with a washer which is very useful and plenty of kitchen equipment. Iron and ironing board also included.
The place might be hard to find as is not immediately obvious but it’s a small door between two bars. There is a 24 concierge and a separate entry for when you come in from the beach to wash off before heading to the apartment.
No parking and hard to park nearby so do not recommend a car but with affordable Ubers around there is no need; we only used it for airport transport as there were so many of us.
We booked many tours which the meeting point was pretty always a hotel round the corner so a bonus with the location as well.
Definitely sleeps around 7 people who do not mind too much sharing - two bedrooms with doubles (one fits three people as there is a pull out) and a sofa bed in the main living area. Rooms are fully air conditioned which helped a lot with the heat.
