The place was much smaller than I expected, I was hoping to have two volumes at the apartment but there were only one bedroom/living room, tiny bathroom and a kitchen in a corridor. Obviously it was my mistake, because the description says that it’s a studio. The building is old, the amenities of the studio are cheap and simple, but funcional.
As I entered the studio, I understood that I made a mistake and tried to cancel the reservation. I even offered to pay a fine, but the reservation was non refundable and I would lose 4 days of payment, so decided to stay.
Good stuff: the location is simply perfect, in a good area of Rio with a lot of restaurants and shops around. Close to Ipanema beach. Juliana, that manages the accommodation, was really responsive.
What I have learned from this trip? I won’t reserve more non refundable accommodations, because you can make a mistake while booking and later won’t have a way back, even paying a fine.
