Marcio's place is the perfect location for Copacabana Beach. Right next door to the Hilton Hotel. Only had 2 issues. WiFi was slower than described...closer to 5mbps download speed which is a tad slow for video chat or other video streaming. The dryer and washer stopped working while I was there. Marcio was very attentive in trying to get it resolved but was only able to fix the dryer during my 5 night stay. I felt very safe and it was nice to have a doorman as added security. Everything else was as expected. Overall I enjoyed my stay
