Bruno's apartment is fantastic! When we walked in I couldn't believe the wonderful views and light. There is an incredible view of Rio's iconic mountains and ocean, right out of the living room and bedroom, which has a real wow factor.

The apartment was just finished being re-done and everything is new. The place is thoughtfully designed just for renters, very clean and doesn't have that lived in feeling some places I have rented in Rio de Janeiro seem to have. Everything we needed was provided, fresh bath towels, linens and bathroom and kitchen supplies and the bed was very comfortable. There was also plenty of hot water.

The building is on a quiet residential street and is just a few blocks from the beach. The surrounding neighborhood is very nice with a lot of options for dining, etc. and felt very safe. Also, Bruno's apartment is high up and very quiet. There is a gym which looked nice on the top floor of the building, but we didn't use it.

The Wifi internet worked well and seems to be high speed as I was able to make high quality video Skype calls.

Bruno communicated promptly and was always available and gave me some great recommendations for places to go in the neighborhood. He shared with me that he just bought and re-did this apartment and I was the first guest. Great place and experience Bruno! Thank you again.
