Jose's apartment is great. It is located indeed in the best part of Ipanema, next to plenty of bars, shops, and most important, the beach!
He and his colleagues were very kind when we got to the apartment and when we left.
I would highly recommend this place to my friends . It has everything you might need to make a great meal, the shower is excellent, the bed is super confortable, the a/c works wonderfully...
Congrats to Jose for being such an amazing host and the best of lucks!
