My boyfriend and I had a great time in Rio and this apartment was perfectly located for us to explore Rio easily and hassle free - one block from Copacabana beach and a 10 minute walk to the nearest metro station.
The apartment itself was great for us - very clean, quiet and homely. There's a 24 hour doorman on duty which makes the block feel very safe, especially at night.
Paulo met us the day we arrived and took his time welcoming us into the apartment, explaining how everything worked so we weren't left with any unanswered questions. Throughout our stay, Patricia and Paulo kept in contact with us to make sure we were doing ok which was very reassuring and even arranged our taxi to the airport for us; they really were great hosts!
A great apartment and fantastic hosts!
