My partner and I spent three days in Karina's apartment in February 2016. We loved our time there - the apartment is charming, clean and comfortable, and ideally located between Ipanema and Copacabana beaches, a few minutes away from the beaches, cafés, restaurants and a convenience store which was very practical. Karina was super helpful, before we arrived and when we got there - she was very easy to contact, responsive and welcoming - she was working the day we landed but made it back to the apartment to welcome us as we arrived a bit earlier than expected, which we very much appreciated. She offered plenty of great advice and recommendations for restaurants and best spots to go to the beach. We highly recommend Karina's apartment and just wished we could have stayed longer!
