Location, location, location!
Diego’s place was excellent and had everything we needed, but the location is definitely the best part of it. The apartment is located at the best part of Leblon, with a lot of things to do and a few steps away from the beach - on top of all this, it is a safe area where you can walk with a piece of mind, even at night (which doesn’t happen in other areas like Ipanema or Copacabana).
We had a little issue during our stay, but Diego was super helpful and sorted it out really quickly. Highly recommended.
