Great apartment. Excellent location close to the beach and nightlife of Ipanema. The view from the room, and particularly from the rooftop is stunning. Continental breakfast on the rooftop was nice, friendly staff. On the negative side, the kitchen is small, and not fully functional. There were small bugs in the kitchen area, which got worse at night. We sent s message, and they sprayed promptly, which took care of the problem. The towels were not of great quality, and initially we only received 2 sets of towels for 3 people. Other than that, is was a fantastic stay.
