Cátia is probably one of the best hosts I have encountered on Airbnb. She truly understands the concept of customer service and is willing to do everything possible to make one's stay as comfortable and agreeable as possible. The apartment is bigger than the photos show, a very pleasant surprise. It is conveniently located in Arpoador neighbourhood, one block from Copacabana beach and three from Ipanema beach. Very close to restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies, bars and public transportation. Thank you Cátia for making our stay very pleasant.
