There were three of us staying in the apartment for four nights. The apartment was spacious and matched the pictures. It was located in a nice neighbourhood, a 10 minutes walk to Botafogo beach and 15 minutes walk to Flamengo beach. It was also a 5 minutes walk to the Flamengo metro station (we took the metro often to go to Copacabana beach, Ipanema beach and to Rio's city centre). There were shops, supermarkets, restaurants and bakeries close by (we recommend lunch/dinner at Armazém do Chopp and breakfast/brunch at Panificação Benamor). The host Silvana was responsive and communicated with us promptly.
