Nice place, and great host! Luiz was very accommodating of our late arrival and late checkout. He responded to all inquiries within an hour and was great to do business with. The location was solid and provided very easy access to the beach and lots of great restaurants. The doormen were friendly, and the place felt secure, too. The layout of the unit also used the space well.
There were a few things of note, though.. the AC unit in the living room didn’t work (which he mentioned in the listing), one of the bathroom faucets in the bathrooms were for the most part broken, but still fairly functional, and the other bathroom shower flooded the floor each time it was used. There were also dirty clothes in the hamper and one of the sets of sheets in one of the bedrooms smelled fairly musty as if they weren’t fully expecting guests. The couch is also fairly small, and can really only accommodate one person on it at a time.
Overall, a solid spot!
