Apartment more or less as expected. The location is great and I loved living there. The street is quiet and it’s close to all the main attractions of Rio; not to mention, it’s still right in the middle of Copacabana. Speaking more on the accommodation itself, the AC functions (incredibly important in a place like Rio) though is not particularly powerful so is only useful in the bedroom itself and requires a little fighting with the outlet to get it to work. The kitchen is fine, though guests might miss a set of sharp knives and there seems to be a recurring problem of leaking water under the sink into the cabinets below, leading to occasional smells of mold and randomly wet floors. Also the futon in the living area functions, but mind you is not particularly comfortable for sleeping on due to a board in the middle of the bed (so counting on having someone sleeping on it for an extended period of time is not recommended). Again, I loved living at this place despite the occasional discomfort and I leave it with only fond memories!!
