Well Located in the hub of Ipanema! This intimate comfy apartment is where we stayed during our visit to Rio. Clean and well equiped with all the necessities, Fast WiFI which is essential when travelling. Not to mention the Helpful host about any information you may require about Rio. Beware it is noisy during Carnival and it does not have a balcony so you may feel claustrophobic after a few days if staying longer then 3 days. It is literally two blocks away from the beach and you have the best restaurants right at your door step. The metro and bus station is also a short walk away. One last thing!! it is as in the pictures!!
