We stayed at Andrea's place for New Year's Eve / Reveillon 2023.
Pros:
-- Fantastic location!
-- Great amount of space
-- Very secure building with attentive doormen (note, and as expected in Brazil, they only speak Portuguese)
-- Large fridge (didn't use the other kitchen appliances, so can't comment on those)
Cons:
-- Closed rooftop terrace
Despite confirming before booking and the various photos in the listing, we did not have access to the rooftop terrace. We were only informed after check-in that it was closed for maintenance. We had to make costly arrangements to view the fireworks from an alternative location.
-- Lack of soundproofing
The apartment sits above a nightclub that is open until 5 am with loud music and strong bass. Our sleep was interrupted half of the nights we stayed.
-- Minimum necessities provided
Plan to shop for more toilet paper, etc. (2 rolls given for 4 people for 4 nights)
-- Cleanliness & hot water pressure could be slightly improved
Overall nice stay.
