Fantastic apartment and lovely host. Edna is very friendly and did everything she could to help us in our stay. She doesn't speak any English but we managed to communicate fine with the help of smiles, gestures and google translate! She dealt with any queries or issues we had very promptly and to our satisfaction (for example the boiler had switched off so she came over to fix it as soon as I called her). The apartment is very comfortable and has a great location as it is very close to the lake and an easy walk to Ipanema beach and to the many fantastic restaurants on Rua Dias Ferreira. We asked Edna is she could have the apartment cleaned half way through our stay. This cost extra but was organised very quickly. The wifi works fairly well although the signal is stronger in the bedrooms which are closer to the router. Two of the bedrooms have double beds and the third has a single bed with another single bed which slides out from underneath it (described as a bunk bed by google translate). It has two bathrooms and a small but perfectly useable kitchen in which we cooked several meals during our stay. Overall I would totally recommend the apartment
