I really enjoyed staying at Silvia's flat. She was so easy to communicate with and was really understanding when we changed our check-in time (twice!) to take advantage of a beach we discovered on our drive to Rio. My favorite thing about the flat (besides the amazing hosts) was its location - two blocks from Ipanema Beach, maybe 5 blocks to Copacabana, and RIGHT me to the famous Hippie Market on Sundays. The second bedroom is small but it was perfect for us as it gave us a break from 3 people sleeping in the same hotel room. It was also a big bonus that that there were two full bathrooms so everyone could shower and get ready at the same time. We looked at some fancier AirBnbs in Rio (that cost at least 2x the price) price of Silvia's flat, but we chose this one because it had everything we needed and was good value at the price - we weren't disappointed! And I really can't say enough nice things about Silvia and her husband Daniel. They were the best AirBnb hosts I've met yet.
