The apartment is very well located. You can find great bars and restaurants on a walking distance. It's a safe spot in Ipanema close to a subway station wich can be very handed.
It's a simple building and on the ground floor there's some bars but the apartment is well decorated with good amenities and sound proof windows. So, you can sleep in a quiet place with the ac on (but closed widows).
We (a couple) stayed for 11 days and had a great time. Communication with Eduardo and Mauro was very easy and quick. Mauro showed us the apartment and was always very helpful. We recommend!
