Mariana’s apartment is large, comfortable and has a balcony with a sea view. The AC and internet both work without problems. The location is great - near Posto 10 on Ipanema beach, and close to lots of bars, restaurants and supermarkets. The building and pool are good. As this is a full-time rental property, rather than someone’s home, the decor isn’t exactly stylish or cosy, but don’t let that put you off - it is a good, practical apartment in a great location.
