We had a wonderful time staying here. The apartment is bright and airy and located right in the heart of Copacabana, just 2 blocks from the beach. Renata was on vacation, but we were greeted by her very affectionate and sweet mother, who answered a lot of our questions and did everything she could to get us situated in the apartment. It was an amazing experience and felt perfectly safe in a doorman/elevator building. Would recommend this to anyone wishing to stay in the Copa area!
