Fabio's appartment in Rio is in the greatest location: in the best corner of Ipanema, 2 steps from the lake and from the beach.
It means however that it is on a very busy street: So bring your earplugs with you otherwise you will not close one eye...
The appartment is vast enough for 4 persons with a sleeping couch in the living room and with a big bedroom. However, please note that the couch is very hard...so not very comfortable. And overall I would say that the pictures are honest but give a newer impression of the appartment than it is in reality.
But all in all nice enough and Fabio is a very helpful and friendly person. I would recommend this appartment!
