This apartment is absolutely spectacular. We were surprised with how large each of the bedrooms and living space are, much larger than it appears in the photos. In addition the benefit of a laundry was unexpected and really useful.
The location is second to none, conveniently located on the best street for shopping and less than a block from the metro. It felt really safe being amongst the hustle and bustle of Ipanema, yet the apartment is quiet and cool.
The doormen were fantastic, kind and very helpful and added a great security to the apartment.
Claudio was incredibly patient and considerate as a host, responding to my questions both prior to and during our stay.
Highly recommend this apartment I would try to stay again when I return to Rio.
