The apartment is large and very well equipped. The location makes it easy to reach everything you want to reach in Ipanema. And the service provided by Omar do Rio is very responsive and professional.
Two downsides: 1.) The apartment is extremely dark, since the windows face direct walls with no sunlight or view of the sky. 2.) The building is directly next to the entrance of a favela. Hence, there are always some dodgy people outside. That said, there is a police car next to the building 24/7 to provide security outside the favela, and I had no problems.
