My boyfriend and I stayed for three days at Ugo's place in Copacabana. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing stay by the beach. The apartment is in mint condition: clean, convenient and well-equipped. It was a quick walk to the beach and close to a ton of restaurants and juice bars. When we wanted to eat in, there was even a 24 hour grocery store across the street. There were friendly 24-hour doormen, and the apartment was in a safe area. Also, the area is very well served for public transportation. Ugo made sure that we knew how to get to his place before we checked-in and was very responsive to all of our questions. His wife was there to greet us when we arrived, and throughout our stay the two of them made sure that we had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay at Ugo's and definitely recommend his apartment.
