Jose's place was outstanding. It has an amazing location, it is only one block to the Ipanema beach and it is close to anything you could need (restaurants, bars, supermarket, shopping places, subway station, etc.).
The apartment itself has all you can need to have a great stay including a full-equipped kitchen, air conditioner and a washing machine.
Additionally, Jose is very kind and diligent. The apartment was super clean and Jose gave us extra towels and sheets. My girlfriend and I felt like in home. He is a great host.
