No surprise, the apartment is exactly as described and the views are amazing. Great location in a quiet and safe neighborhood, close to everything and far from the noisy traffic of Ipanema center. Communication with both the owner and Lila, the young local woman managing the apartment, was clear and easy at any time. At our arrival, Lila was patiently waiting for us in the apartment and she gave us the keys and some helpful advices about restaurants, beaches and shopping. Just one small negative thing : the well equipped kitchen lacks of wine glasses. Otherwise I would say that the apartmet is perfect. We loved our stay in this modern and spotless loft and we definetely recommend it.
