We stayed 5 nights in this studio. The apartment was clean, nice and looks as pictured here on the website. The location was also very good, even though we spent more time in other areas of Rio, like Ipanema and Leblon. Our only complain about our stay was that the Wifi was not working most of the time we were there. Obviously this was very inconvenient for us, and in addition very costly since we had to use our international phones instead. We contacted our host immediatly about the problem, and still it took several days to fix it. First the host didnt take the issue seriously, blaming the rain, sending her son to restart the rooter (which we already had done of course) before she finally after a few days decided to call the company - thus the long time to fix it. In the meantime she offered us to move to a bed and breakfast, but that was obviously no real option for us, since we specifically had chosen this studio for its features such as privacy, good location etc, and paid the price for that. This is not an issue you want to deal with on your holiday, it caused us a lot of stress, time and money. We think it would have been fair with a compensation in the price, and thus asked for it. Our host then got very rude, and put as a condition to a compensation that we checked out early (we had already agreed upon late check-out weeks ago as our flight was 9.30pm, and there were no new guests coming after us). This gave us really no option, as it would just cause us more complications having to check out early. The host knew this very well, and used it against us to make us forfeit the compensation. Internet can be unreliable sometimes, we are aware of this, but we think our host handled the problem very unprofessionally, was unwilling to compensate for the inconvenience, and was even quite rude. In conclusion we would not recommend this host.
