Excellent location, walking distance from both Ipanema and Copacabana beaches.
Very close to metro station and buses.
Would be useful to have a simple map to the supermarket and local amenities as doormen don't speak English (Might not be an issue for everyone).
The main complaint I would have is the shower, the water is warm at best and freezing at worse.
There was some building works going on while we were there so I would check this with host before booking.
