My friend and I wanted to experience Rio and chose to stay at William's apartment. We thoroughly enjoyed are time there. William met us at the apartment and made sure to show us how everything works to ensure we wouldn't have any problem. He was always available to answer questions about everything. The apartment is just as pictured and very clean. The subway and grocery stores are but a short walk. We made that trip everyday and sometimes several times throughout the day. The location is near major places that you would want to go. Via taxi, most places are only 15 min away. I would definitely recommend staying here while in Rio. Thank you very much William!
