The apartment has a fantastic location. 2 minutes to the beach, a supermarket and some nice restaurants around the corner. Public transport directly close to it. Still it is in a very nice, quiet sidestreet which is clean and with green trees. The apartment is large, has a nice interior. Nice view as well. Aircon worked fine, the kitchen is well equipped. All in all we were very happy.
One of the matrices could be renewed as it is not that comfy on one side and the sofa in the living room has some severe scratches but both did not affect our great time in rio. Armando was very responsive and nice to us. Good description of the neighborhood and an agency to contact in cases of questions.
I can highly recommend this place.
