The best thing about this flat is the view and the location. From the living room you get a fantastic view along the whole of Copocabana beach to Sugar Loaf Mountain and over the bay. Location is great too. 2 minutes to the beach, near Metro, buses and taxis and with plenty of bars, restaurants and shops nearby.
There is a 24 hour concierge so getting in and out is no problem and the area felt safe.
The flat itself is small and a bit basic. Wi-fi is very good, the shower less so. We didn’t meet our host, Brenda, but she answered e-mails promptly.
Overall this is a great place to stay in Rio.
