This was my second stay here, and all I can add is that the apartment is very central to everything, and the views are great. It is a nice oasis in the Ipanema bustle. I must mention that the front desk staff were always professional and very helpful. They would look up google translate on their computer to get across the language barrier, and help us to understand everything. Carolina was always quick to respond, and made sure everything was fine. I would stay here yet again, when I visit Rio.
