We had such a wonderful stay in the very safe surrounding, there are doorkeepers 24/7 in front of the Apartment. The apartment was very clean and comfy a modern bath, there is a air conditioner and pans and pots to cook. Carolina was a main factor for the joy we had staying there as she gave us wonderful tips what to do in Rio and what Cariocas like to do. She also helped us upfront with all questions we had and answered always very fast!! Thank you Carolina!! There are supermarkets, Drugstores, Pharmacy’s, Restaurants and Bars close by we felt secure all the time. the beach is just in front of the door and you could watch the waves from the apartment! There is a underground station and you can always take a Uber (so affordable compared to European prices). Really recommenable and perfect for the start of a perfect Brazilian journey. Obrigada! :)
