A great apartment in a great location, with Ipanema beach in front of you as you walk out of the cute block of flats. Next to plenty of bars and restaurants in General Osorio sq, but extremely quiet as it is at the back of the block (overlooking beatiful internal patios). The apartment is compact, but has been refurbished to very high standard, and has all you need for a perfect stay as a solo traveller or couple: comfortable bed, modern aircon, proper blinds, washing machine etc. Rafael is a great host, available for anything you need but completely unobstrusive. It was a pleasure to stay at his place!
