location is awesome, the apartment is small but pretty good to accommodate easily 2 people. This was the only host that allowed me to booked 2 nights in Ipanema so for that I thank you very much Jose Antonio !. Self check in was easy and fast and I didn't have to wait till noon. I didn't have any use of the kitchen but it is set and equipped to prepare snacks, breakfast, etc. Big window is facing a courtyard and you will never hear any traffic or street noises.
