The views are spectacular and the 24hr doormen are so friendly and helpful. The area is safe during the day and less at night. The beach is a block away and great for exercising. The apartment is 2 floors and the ac units work well, wifi is slow. The place is not the cleanest and that could be because of the construction next door, it was extremely loud and we couldn’t enjoy the outdoor space. The owner responds in a reasonable amount of time but was not honest about the noise level. He knew about the construction and did not warn us before hand. I would not stay here again because of the dishonesty and I travel to Rio every month for work.
