OK place to stay. Host treats you like a child & will send you messages ahead of time & at checkout about his “upper class” apt & how ppl had left “used period pads on the floor” & “treated the place like a hotel” & to “remind you to check out at 10am” on next day. WHEN we needed more actual/clear check in & out instructions & a little hospitality. I got the interior room w/ art on the walls, bigger bed & private bathroom. The other bedroom frankly is not very nice, the bed is stained brown & so are the pillows (the sheets came off as did the pillow cases exposing it). Kitchen also heavily stained all over the cabinets & all the rugs/mats in the apt are in terrible shape. The sofa is also torn up. We were ONLY given 1 TOWEL each (4total) for a 6day stay. Yes, very clear not a hotel
However, A/C blows cold in rooms for a comfortable temp & everyone reported sleeping OK. Wi-Fi good. The overall location is great putting you in between Ipanema/copacabana. OK overall but never again. Thx!
