This apartment is found within walking distance to Copacabana beach, and in a nice gated building with a lift and doorman. It was easy to get taxis. The area is a bit noisy but ok and there are lots of shops nearby. The kitchen seems small if you like cooking with not much workspace. One bedroom has twin beds and overlooks a back street and wooded hillside. The other has a double bed, air con and no windows plus onsuite shower and toilet. Altogether a good place to choose and Marcelo was very helpful.
