The apartment is in a great location close to Ipanema beach. Adraina was easy to communicate with and the doorman was polite. The apartment is satisfactory but could use updating though this is common for apartments in the area. I had an issue with construction noise in the neighboring apartment beginning at 9am. Adriana responded quickly to get the neighbor to delay construction until 11am, but the following morning the noise began again at 9am. I appreciate Adriana responding, but the noise did effect my enjoyment of the apartment.
