The apartment location is great. It is a short walk from the beach, restaurants and cool bars. The lake is not too far away. It is much quicker to get in and out of by car/Uber than Copacabana. It is really easy to get to the Christ and the Botanical Gardens. The bathroom was really nice. There was enough space to sit and eat. The TV had several channels. The air conditioning worked well. Monica, the host, was very responsive.
