Every time I visit Rio I try to stay around the same area in Ipanema because it feels safe, its super close to the beach and it surrounded by services. This time around was Carnaval and prices were higher but Anileda's place was such a great choice for the value! Bear in mind the actual bed situation was two mattress on the floor for me and my friend (which we knew before) but the room is super spacious, clean and feels comfortable. The whole apartment is super homy and comfy (the view from the living room is amazing and makes you feel like a local) and has all the amenities you might need. We had our own bathroom as well, which was nice. Location is amazing! Anileda's was extra helpful when our booking was canceled by us (by mistake): answering us right away and being super available. Check-in was quick and easy. Without a doubt, would stay here again!
