The apartment is great! It is just how it looks on the pictures. Very well furnished and the host is available for any kind of information and help. The view from the window is a big grey wall - a common feature in most places in Copacabana - but the comfort of the place compensates very well for it. It is well located, one block from the beach, and the area has plenty of restaurants, shops and supermarkets. However, at night the area does not feel very safe as a dangerous neighborhood is pretty close, so I would not recommend the place to solo travellers or inexperienced visitors. If you come back/go out at night, make sure you use a taxi/uber!
