The flat is located in one of the best neighbourhoods in Rio, surrounded by restaurants and just outside a tube station. We felt safe throughout our entire time there. It also takes only 5 minutes to get to the beach.
The description and pictures of the flat are very accurate. The apartment was sparking clean. The communication with Cynthia & Robson was all done via Airbnb, but they were very fast at replying to my messages. In fact, they messaged a few times to make sure we were fine. The apartment has 24h concierge which makes it safer and more convenient.
The downside of the flat is that it can feel quite small for a group of 4 people, especially if you would like to use the kitchen. In addition, the mattresses are not the most comfortable.
Overall, it was a great stay and I would definitely come back there again. I’d recommend this place to anyone seeking to stay in a budget flat in an excellent neighbourhood close to the beach.
