This place was exactly as pictured. Loved the balcony. Perfect place for a couple. Location is a street away from Lapa which makes going out easy. The area seems nice and there is a good breakfast/lunch place right on the corner. The apartment had everything you need for cooking. I like the setup. My only issue was that Carlos and I negotiated a late check out but we got locked out and it took about an hour and a half to get in as I was trying to grab my bags and make it to the airport. Carlos was very responsive with this issue but 4 stars because the issue should not happened in the first place since the late check out was agreed upon before booking.
