Ricardo’s apartment was spectacular! It has recently been renovated and everything in the apartment is brand new. The apartment is a block from the beach in Copacabana Posto 5 and is in walking distance of many restaurants, stores and the Metro. The unit is furnished with everything I could possibly need and with higher end furniture, appliances, etc. and the renovation was exceptionally well done. Ricardo and his co-host Jonas were extremely welcoming and provided many good recommendations for my visit to Rio. I look forward to my next stay here and am confident anyone would enjoy this apartment.
