When I arrived at the apartment I was met by Paulo who was able to give me all the latest and greatest info on Rio in perfect English which sometimes seems to be a problem in Brazil.
The apartment itself is incredibly well located in the buzzing area of Ipanema. Lots of bars and restaurants in the immediate area and a very short walk to the beach. There is a bar below the apartment but frankly i never heard anything, or the bed was just too comfortable. Anytime i will go back to Rio, i will always check if Goya's place is available. Thanks for sharing your great place with the rest of us.
