Marcos was very helpful and concise in his communication about the neighbirhood. Access was very easy and flat was very clean and even better than what was in the pictures. The flat is well situated in a calm, nice and safe area. Copacabana Beach is 10min away from the house. restaurants and shops are all around the praça eugenio jardim where the flat is situated. the metro station is just in the front of the house and bus stations are 5 min walking. We appreciated our short stay in Marcos' flat and we definitly recommend it !! Thank you Marcos for your hospitality and the nice discussions we had.. :)
