I stayed at Rafaela's apartment with my family over the New Year and it was a perfect choice! Spacious living room and convenient rooms with bathrooms, big fridge, laundry room and enough space to feel comfortable with a group of 5-6 people. The location is perfect, just next to Copacabana beach, literally few minutes walk and there is a super market just around the corner, it is also very close to Ipanema. There is no parking lot in the building, so you have to park outside on the street. It might get loud during the night, especially in one bedroom that overlooks the street but generally this is a quite apartment. There is always a concierge downstairs and the host greeted us and checked out personally as well. We enjoyed our stay a lot, thank you!
