Great location! Meters away from both Ipanema and Copacabana beaches. Grocery is close by in a few directions. There is a fair/farmers market on the weekends that is wonderful to visit. The apartment is clean and a good amount of space for 2. It’s a little tight for four. The building is very secure with 24 hour security/concierge. Alessandra is very responsive and easy to communicate with. Her written English is good. Breakfast in the hotel (not included) is a good deal.
