Oswalcy’s place is in a great location in Copacabana. Price is fair and good value with enough space for 1-2 people.
Wifi was really poor the first hour but was fine after we resettled the router. Oswalcy is also a great host and will respond to any inquiries promptly.
I gave it 4 stars because there was this unbearable urine smell in the toilet. It was clean when we arrived so not sure why the smell is like that…it’s either coming from the vent on the floor or through something else but it made us not want to use the bathroom at all.
We stayed for 2 nights and really just 1 day since we arrived at 10pm the first night and then left at 6am. If we had stayed any longer we probably would’ve requested something to be fixed about the smell but we were barely in the apartment so we got over it.
Also the walls are super thin so you can hear all your neighbors. There was a family fighting and a crying kid for about 3 hours the first night. Not the place’s fault, but just be mindful you are at the mercy of your neighbor.
Overall this place is still good value in my opinion especially for a short term stay.
