Levy is really kind, friendly and just a great host and the apartment is in an excellent location which is always the most important for us. One block from the hippie markets on Sundays, 3 blocks to the Ipanema beach Posto 8, perfect for exploring the best restaurants around this iconic area. We were thrilled to find excellent supermarkets right outside the door, plus a bike rental shop across the street..very convenient in all aspects. The apartment is spacious for 2 couples or a family and the beds were very comfortable. We really loved our stay and will be sure to book again when returning to Rio - a marvelous city indeed!
