I had a good time staying at denise's place.
The location was convenient, the beds were comfy and the living room was very big. Also, having two bathrooms came in pretty handy as i was sharing the appartment with a friend.
Most importantly, i felt safe when travelling to and from the appartment, which isn't always the case when you're staying in rio, even in ipanema.
The only issue i had was with the water heater as it was not possible to enjoy constant hot water wile showering.
Denise was very nice though. When i forgot my ipad charger at her place, she even went through the trouble of sending it back to me by mail!
I would come back.
