We really enjoyed this apartment. it's fancy very well equipped it feels like your home. Location is great for both Ipanema and Copacabana. The area is really nice with fancy shops and good places to eat. Also at the gas station at the corner is open till late and you can buy water drinks and snaks at anytime. Most of all, Mara was one of the kindest host ever, both before and during the trip. She sent us her lovely assistant to check in who was waiting for us outside the building and gave us all the basic info we needed. We definitely recommend it.
