This flat was in the perfect location for our first visit to Rio. Paolo and Wagner were very responsive via WhatsApp and helped us throughout our trip. We felt very safe walking near the apartment at night (the street is busy with bus and foot traffic) and we were walking distance from so many places during the day. The building was secure and check-in/out with the doorman was not an issue despite our language barrier. This was a great location for our first trip as there was enough to see and do within walking distance easily for a week, and we were also a quick cab ride from Copacabana and many other tourist attractions in the city. Rio is definitely on our list of cities to visit again, and I hope to be able to stay here when we do!
