Location....Location....Location...just excellent. Beach front with amazing view from the living room and two of the three bedrooms. The apartment is in a safe area with 24h doorman. It was clean and only noise comes from the main road at Copacabana Beach (whis was to be expected). In terms of appliances, we did not miss anything. En-suite bathroom was great and our 5 year old daughter enjoyed the whirlpool function. Communication and check-in and check-out was great. The furniture, in particular in the living room is a bit outdated. We would definately stay there again!
