The apartment is aptly named as Comfort & Space. Has everything you need if you want to sit in, cook or just relax. Good facilities, lovely towels, good bedding, washing and ironing facilities and great selection of crockery and cooking utensils should you decide to eat in. It is also well located if you want to go to Copacabana or Ipanema beaches or shops. Your are only a couple of blocks away Copacabana and from all the shops and there are plenty of bars and restaurants within easy walk. We tended to come out the front and turn left and left again if heading to any bars or restaurants. There is possibly however a nicer selection of restaurants in the Ipanema area which is a couple of pounds sterling or a 20 min walk away. For us the apartment was handy as we wanted to be close to Copacabana beach for the new year celebrations. An excellent host and great apartment and you even have the services of a cleaner everyday in the price.
