Great location and spacious apartment!!! We stayed here for 5 days in Mid October and had the greatest time bouncing around Ipanema. A wide variety of food, shopping, and nightlife was in easy walking distance to the apartment and there is a market right across the street. We used the 2 bikes and cruised up and down Ipanema and Copacabana which was awesome! This apartment was cheaper than hotels when we were looking and provided more space including a full kitchen. We also did a full day sightseeing tour during our stay and they picked us up at a local hotel just a couple blocks away from the apartment so the location was good for that as well. Felipe was also a great host. He was in touch with us multiple times over our stay to be sure things were ok and also sent us some information on local events going on he thought we might enjoy.

The only thing we would have liked was a little more comfortable mattress on the pullout couch.

Overall I highly recommend this place and would give a 9/10. I will definitely stay here again on future trips.
