The apartment is perfectly located, and will be even more so when the metro station reopens, as it stands just in front of it!
You are in the part of Copacabana closest to Ipanema. You can walk to both beaches in 3-5 minutes and you can walk around comfortably, as you are in the two safest neighborhoods of Rio.
The apartment is modern, clean, very well equipped, much better equipped than the average of the rental apartments I experienced in Brazil. Even shampoo and cangas (pareos) to take to the beach!
Monica is very nice and always ready to help whenever you need something. She has put together an AMAZING booklet on all you need to know in the apartment and in Rio. Extremely well done.
