A lovely place near everything in Barra de Tijuca, Río de Janeiro. A walk away from the beach, bars, restaurants, pharmacies, cafes and more. The place was cozy and have most things you expect from an Airbnb. Be aware that there is no laundry/dryer on the apartments or buildings and that you most take the trash daily to ensure ants (which are all over Rio) don’t get to it. There are not personal toiletries included, they are easy to get at the pharmacy at the base of the building. I will gladly stay back again in Rafael’s place.
