Mauricio’s place was quite clean, spacious, and stylish. It was exactly as pictured - the bedrooms are larger than they photograph. Having done a fair bit of things in Rio, I found it to be a convenient location as Copacabana is nearer to downtown and many of Rio’s attractions than Leblon for instance, but also the apartment was a short walk from the beach. It felt like an urban location, but a bit more relaxed than staying in the center or downtown which was perfect for me. A bit of street noise or courtyard noise depending on the bedroom, but honestly that’s to be expected in most major cities - I slept well.
