Marcos was very helpful, particularly over WhatsApp. Picking up the key and staying there was seamless, and he continued to help us after we arrived by answering questions and making suggestions for things to. Unfortunately he was traveling while we were there, so we didn't have the chance to meet him in person.

The room is located in a beautiful, modern apartment, which is scrupulously clean. The location is convenient to many cafes and shops (and a post office), and as the name of the listing conveys, it is also very close to the beach. The bed was very comfortable and we were even able to do some wash. After having been traveling for four weeks, it was a great spot to relax and enjoy the Leblon neighborhood.
