Located two blocks away from the beach, the apartment is also adequate if you need to work a little bit during your vacation in Rio.
Check-in and check-out could not be easier, and the hosts are very nice and will give you plenty of tips about Rio and answer questions you might have.
There are several stores, restaurants and supermarkets around, so you don't need to go very far for your daily needs. The surroundings are also pretty safe if you're worried about that, with constant police presence around.
Overall a very satisfying experience.
