I shared the apartment with 2 other friends. Great apartment in a great location. It is close not only to the beach but also to the new subway and numerous restaurants and the Leblon Mall. Carla is a wonderful and helpful host. The apartment has a great shower. The master bedroom is spacious (the bed is a small double) with lots of closet space. The other room is small but sleeps 2 tightly and 1 comfortably. The living/kitchen and dining area is comfortable. I would stay there again when visiting Rio.
