Good:
The place has nice interior design. Makes good use of available space. Bed is comfortable and has airconditioning. Kitchen well equipped and clean. There is an ironing board and a safe locker.
Not so great:
Washing machine was broken. There was a service provided as an alternative but I needed to call a number and make an appointment?! I didn’t understand those instructions.
Living room looks nice but not very comfortable. Couch is not great if you’re a bit big and TV screen is a little broken which makes it annoying if you actually want to watch something.
There are no windows in the living room, you can open the bedroom and let light in like that but then the neighbours can look inside. Windows need cleaning.
Although it’s a family area, it is right next to a favela and I was told by one of the residents not to stand in the front of the building (even behind the gate) because that would attract criminals.
Overall good considering alternatives. Beach is close by.
