the apartment was centrally located in between Copacabana and Ipanema. it is two blocks away from Copacabana beach. the building is a little dated but the apartment and it's furnishings are all new. the place felt very comfortable to stay at.
the registration was simple and I really liked having a code to unlock the door as opposed to a key. this is very beneficial when you come with someone else and you don't need to share the same key.
