The location for this apartment is just absolutely perfect! So close to Copacabana beach and lots of shops, markets, buses and metro station nearby. Valéria was extremely helpful, sharing a lot of really useful local knowledge and information prior to arrival which I really appreciated. She is very quick to reply to any enquiries and is overall a perfect host that I would 1000% recommend to anyone. Rio is a fantastic city, the apartment also is secure and in a safe area for people concerned about safety in Rio. I would definitely recommend anyone coming to Rio to stay here. Thank you for all your help Valéria, it was a pleasure to stay in your home :) 5 stars!
