This apartment was perfectly located between Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. The interior is very well renovated and plenty of modern appliances. In particular the fast wifi (over 50Mbps), massive TV with Netflix, and washing machine +dryer were very useful.
Getting here from the airports is easy with Uber/Cabify which are quite cheap in Rio.
Fabrizio is a great host. We didn't need to meet him, but got his recommendations which were great!
