It's a very nice place to stay in Ipanema without going broke. I found the location to be great. Super close to Ipanema beach as well as Arpoador where you can see one of the most famos sunsets in the world (unless it's cloudy, like it happened to be during my stay). I really liked that it was also close to Copacabana, it is almost sort of in the middle. Great access to both of the beaches and areas.
It is also very private. You have your own little apartment, you can do the self check-in and you have pretty much everything you could possibly need while staying there. Not over the top, but the basic necessities were all there. Really loved the private feel of this place.
There is a functioning fan, as well as air conditioner, so you are protected from the heat. It's small, but perfectly fine for one person to stay, and I truly felt like I had everything I could possibly need druing my stay, like a little fridge, for example.
I was able to check out a bit later because my flight was in the evening and the next guest was going to arrive the day after, so I could stay until the cleaning lady arrived at 5 p.m (I head to leave earlier than that, though,). Late check out is always a nice and much appreciated extra for me. Thank you!
The not such a good part for me personally was the wifi. Based on the comments I read on Airbnb I expected a better internet connection. It is super important to me to have a good connection. In this case the wifi is kind of unreliable, it comes and goes and it is quite slow. I wasn't able to do some things that I was planning or needing to do online, and others, such as my online check-in to the flight home, took forever.
Other than that, it truly is a great place to stay.
