Great location on prime street in Ipanema less than a block from the beach. Very safe and nice area. Bath amenities and souvenir Brazil flags left in each bedroom. Everything was very clean and lovely maids made breakfast every morning with eggs and coffee and fresh fruit. Great wifi service and Sonos as well. Also very good air conditioning in each bedroom.

That all said, the apartment in real life does not look nearly as nice as it does in the photos. Each bathroom is a hodgepodge of different plumbing fixtures. One shower has the boiler controls in the wall inside the shower. Water in the front unit (with balcony) ran hot and cold which made showering interesting. Also a toilet in one of the front bedrooms has an electric pump to help it flush. This is fine, except it also had a water leak from the tank to the bowl so the pump was activated every few minutes and the noise made sleeping in the bedroom impossible. The whole place could use a professional paint job. Overall it's a nice space with great potential but all feels a little too unfinished for what they are charging.
