This apartment was perfect for me. It is literally right next door to the Windsor Barra Hotel, where my meeting was located. It is a bright clean apartment with a gorgeous view from the balcony. There is 24 hr doorman and security and I felt completely safe there. The hosts were very helpful and responsive to any questions I had. They even provided a bunch of snacks and groceries in the kitchen! Highly recommend. If you're looking for a place to stay in the Barra neighborhood in Rio this is a great place.
