I needed an apartment close by Copa for my parents in Ipanema. Nereu responded quickly and courteously. Though we never met, exchanges with him were straight forward, prompt and just what was needed. The apartment's location is great - a few steps away from the beach in a safe part of the city. It's probably best described as a studio and fits the bill perfectly for a quick stay in Rio - close to great restaurants, the beach and anything else that would bring you to such an amazing place.
