Our stay in Armandos apartment was lovely. The location was just perfect, right in between Ipanema and Copacabana within 2 minutes walk to either of them. The neighbourhood had amazing, cool restaurants nearby, easy access to taxis right at the doors-step of the building, 24 hours reception and vigilance, very safe spot as well. Didn't feel unsafe at all at anytime. The apartment itself was very comfortable, clean, modern and quiet. Would definitely recommend it.
