We loved our three week stay in this spacious apartment. The location is optimal for Rio with great accessibility via metro, buses, Uber and bike rentals and Aterro do Flamengo park on your doorstep. There were abundant grocery stores nearby and some places to eat. It was private as the external windows faced the rock and without traffic noise it was peaceful despite occasional exceptions from neighbours. There was great natural light and a breeze in the living room and bedroom, and although the kitchen and second bedroom had neither of these they were were still well lit. The bed was very comfortable, shower pressure was excellent, and the WiFi was strong. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and the two desks enabled working from home. Shushma was a communicative and helpful host. I would stay again and recommend to others.
