Juliana's apartment in Ipanema was great and super convenient to get around town! The apartment is in a fantastic location, literally a block away from the beach. There are also many great restaurants and bars in the neighborhood, as well as the weekly Hippie Market on Sundays right across the street. Also just a short walk to both Leblon and Copacabana. My group and I felt very safe during our stay, as there was a doorman located at the entrance 24/7. The apartment itself was very spacious and was able to comfortably accommodate our group of 7 people. Juliana was very flexible in our group's check-in/out times and made it much easier for our timing. The only thing I would mention is the noise that comes from the club across the street can get loud late night and into the morning, however I mentioned this to the host and she said that they would be installing some sound proofing in the near future. Otherwise our stay was great!
