Serginho was an excellent host. He was available to help or answer questions at any time via what's app. Check-in/check out was smooth and Sergio was very accommodating to our flight hours. The apartment was exactly as pictured, clean, well-equipped and a perfect space for our family of four. The building is well-managed, preserved, and safe; the porteiros were all super nice and helpful 24 hours a day. The location is fantastic, with a view to the beach as soon as you step out of the portaria. Easy access to supermarket, bakery, cafes, juice bars, and many beach restaurants. We will definitely return on our next visit to Rio.
