Debora is a great host and communication was fast and without hassle. The location is great, the apartmeant is literally seconds away from the famous Copacabana beach.

Unfortunately we felt not very comfortable in the house. It is certainly way too small for the advertised amount of 10 people. We were eight people, and could barely fit into the "livingroom". The livingroom has been split into two rooms, and because of this, there is no daylight in the livingroom. Also, there were not enough chairs nor cups to accommodate eight people. the second bathroom is merely a toilet with a shower head installed, but having a shower in there is impossible, we didn't even try. So getting ready in the morning takes some time if you travel with a big group. Also one room had only broken light bulbs, so no light at all, we replaced the bulb ourselves. Not all rooms have working ceiling fans, and the portable ones are so noisy, one can barely sleep with them on, a big disadvantage in a city like Rio de Janeiro.
Besides it's great location, I would not recommend the apartment, as it is too small for the advertised people it can house and it is not very charming.
