Marcello was the perfect host. He responds quickly to any questions or concern. The apartment is clean and there is a cleaning service available as well. The location was perfect as well. We were close to everything: the beaches, lake, sugarloaf gondola, hang gliding, copacabana, Christ Redeemer, National forest, and subways. The facilities are wonderful too. There is a pool, gym, sauna and relaxing areas. The best is the cafe on the top floor with good views of the entire area and good food for breakfast and lunch. But the staff make the experience even better! They are all so kind and helpful! Thanks, Marcello.
