The apartment was great as was Roger. He met us to give us the keys and some tips about staying in Rio, our flight was delayed so he was stuck waiting on a Friday night but he did not complain.

Everything you would was available in the apartment, maps, snacks, drinks, TV, towels, tissues, toilet paper, hair dryer, etc etc

The apartment is to the rear of the building which faces a quiet lane rather than the busy road at the front. Noise is not a problem.
There is air conditioning or a large window that can be left open. The apartment is on a high floor so this is not a problem (yes there is a lift).

Copacabana beach is only a block away - a few minutes walk maximum.

Easy to flag a taxi in front of the building.

There is multiple ATMs within short walking distance and several supermarkets close by where you can buy food to keep in the fridge and prepare yourself.

A great affordable alternative to staying in Rio hotels which are very expensive. I would recommend Rogers place to anyone.

Roger can be contacted any time by phone, email or through airbnb and he would also offer to help booking tours if required.

The apartment is very well looked after and clean and the bathroom is very new so no problems with having a hot shower.

The front desk is attended 24 hours which helps with peace of mind although. Despite being wary when we first arrived we never once felt unsafe.

Not much else I can say other than for a great home away from home, stay here!!
