I most definitely recommend Claudio's apartment for 2 reasons: Response/communication and Location.
The apartment is located 1 block from post 9 Ipanema beach in a really nice and safe location.
The building itself has a very friendly doorman, elevator, and even a place to wash the sand off your feet.
The apartment is very close to very trendy bars, restaurants, and shops.
In the apartment you will have:
-Everything has recently been renovated
-Internet (roughly 15 mbs, which was great for me to use for work)
-A work station (table, chairs, plugs, TV)
-Very comfortable bed
-Fully stocked kitchen (pots, pans, cups, cutlery)
-A washing machine (which became a life saver to wash my beach clothes)
-Towels and linens
-Great windows that let in plenty of light
-A fan and AC unit
I highly recommend this place as Claudio was super friendly and helped us with all our needs... this was better than staying in a hotel!
See you very soon Claudio!!
