Pedro was a great host. The apartment was a good size for 2 people. The kitchen and bathroom were a bit outdated. The bed and couch were nowhere near being new (stains on both). The location of the apartment was fantastic. Right in the heart of Copacabana and Ipanema. If you're planning on being out most of your time in Rio then this place is worth it! There's also a doorman 24/7 which made me and my friend (both female) feel safe.
