Alice is generous, warm and welcoming and was all about making sure we had what we needed and were comfortably installed. The apartment is funky-cool and very relaxed and the listing description is accurate. I loved the convenient location in Ipanema -- 5' (on foot) from Ipanema beach (posto 8) and easy to jump on the subway (general osorio st) and get to other parts of the city. Hope someday will be able to come back!
