The only thing better than the location was the host! Levy was always very quick to answer all of our messages. He has a vast knowledge of Rio and will fill your schedule with suggestions. Ask him anything...even which bus to take! If you were to have any issues, it's obvious that he makes it his priority to take care of it right away. If you're still working on your Portuguese, no worries, the host speaks fluent English. Thanks for everything Levy!
The location is perfect, right in the middle of Copacabana and one block from the beach. You are literally in the middle of all the action with lots of bars and restaurants on every corner.
Despite being in the middle of all the fun and commotion, the apartment itself was very quiet. There was some hammering nearby during the day, but who in their right mind would care or even be inside when the beach and bars are where you should be!
The apartment was compact but not cramped at all. Everything was very clean and I'd even guess it was recently remodeled. It's a simple space but has everything you need.
You can't beat the price. At the time we were looking for a place, this was the most economic entire apartment in the area.
All in all, we were very happy with our stay here and would highly recommend it!
