This is a fantastic studio apartment, right near the beach in Copacabana and near shops, restaurants and a few minutes to the metro to take you into the centre. It is the second time that I have come to the Anita studio, and I think that speaks volumes. It has lovely decor, has all the amenities that you need, has a comfy bed and a hot shower! Alan and Catherine very kindly leave a welcome pack of goodies, which as I got there late at night was most welcome! Hugo, who checks you in and out is lovely, very helpful, and if I had any questions Alan or Catherine got back to me straight away. Great to look right out of the window in the morning and see the Cristo on the hill! The area feels safe, and I as a solo female traveller felt it was very easy to get around both locally and further afield - check out the Free Walking Tours! My hosts left a fantastic pack full of information of what to do, where to go, as well as a booklet with everything you need to know about the accommodation. I really hope this won't be the last time I go back, and would thoroughly recommend this lovely studio apartment! Obrigada Alan and Catherine!
