Fabio was great! Speaks very good English and was very helpful giving us tips of things to do while in Rio, all of which were VERY helpful. The place is amazing and perfect for 2 people. It is perfectly situated in ipanema (a very safe and nice place to stay). Communications with fabio were easy and he was at the apartment waiting for us on the day of our arrival. Highly recommend staying with Fabio and especially at this location, which is also incredibly clean and centrally situated!!!
