Barbara is the perfect host, very friendly and attentive, and I highly recommend her and this great apartment, located in the most noble and well served part of Copacabana. It's very comfortable and cozy and has all the amenities needed for a long or short trip. The kitchen is well equipped in case you want to cook, but you are also surrounded with some great restaurants (including gourmet vegetarian and vegan) , and you can easily walk there or order in. Unforgettable stay! Thank you, Barbara!
