Sergio's apartment was a perfectly positioned base for exploring central Rio, the bohemian Santa Theresa and surrounds. The apartment was clean, well stocked with cooking equipment, spacious (we had our 19 yo daughter with us and she slept comfortably on the convertible couch) with the stunning views to the bay. We took full advantage of Serg's cafe across the road and enjoyed many breakfasts and afternoon beers. We felt like complete locals by the end of our week. I would highly recommend a stay in this apartment and found nothing to fault.
