I booked for 30 days, good location and close to some nice restaurants and the beach but that's about it, here are some important things you need to know before making a reservation to this place
INTERNET: The host claimed the internet speed was 250Mbps but in reality it was not even half of that, also it was failing quite often so I had to use hotspot to work more than a few times. Sometimes the speed test was showing absurdly slow, like 2-3 Mbps, so if you are working remotely be very mindful before renting this place.
HOST: If you need help from the host expect often times not to be answered.
CHECK-IN: Be careful about the check-in! The official check-in time is 3PM and my flight to Rio was early in the morning that day, so I decided to book an additional day on top of my planned stay (a day that is not used basically) right before coming in just so that I can arrive and check-in in the morning without having to worry about waiting for the 3pm time to come, the host was fully aware of this. Also the host confirmed that that the keys would be waiting for me at the reception and I didn't need to worry. On the arrival date I was shocked to realize that this was not communicated at all and I actually had to wait at the reception and explain to various people why I'm that early that day and that basically my stay actually started 1 day before even coming that day and that the keys should've been prepared for me etc. Yeah - the keys were not available, basically another woman resolved the issue and opened the apartment, if not for her I could've waited for much longer since the host was not responding that morning at all.
RESERVATION: There was 0 questions from the host before the booking (as I asked specifically if this place has a good internet and that I'm planning to stay for at least a month or even more) and AFTER I paid and confirmed the place I started being question regarding myself and what I do for living - which in itself is not strange but needs to be asked BEFORE actually making the reservation (or in the meantime, and not after the host manually confirmed it) and the strangest thing was that I had to explain WHY I'm booking an apartment? I never got this question on Airbnb before, ever.
PRIVACY: Expect none - the walls are drywall and incredibly thin, even if you whisper people in the other apartments can still hear you.
CHECK-OUT: 10 days after checking out I received messages regarding some additional costs (?) that I was not aware of, and also were not present at all in the airbnb listing - so have this in mind as well, I'm not sure what I have to pay extra and for what reason but considering everything that happened I guess everything is possible.
