Excellent location in the Copacabana area of Rio, and it’s very close to the famous Copacabana Palace hotel. Although Fatima was not there, her husband, Hirata, was there to help when I arrived in Rio really early and also allowed me to leave my luggage at the apartment before check in and after check out. Hirata also provided plenty of recommendations of what to eat in Rio. They also provided some nice little touches during my stay such as water and a flag indicating where I came from. Bathroom provided exactly what I needed. Although the room is small, it provided what I needed during my stay here and again, it’s at an excellent location within minutes walking distance to the Copacabana Beach. I highly recommend Fatima and Hirata for staying in Rio!
