Located in Ipanema a block away from the beach it is a great value location. The Airbnb is part of a serviced apartment building so you will get housekeeping plus there is a restaurant you can have breakfast and lunch. Place feels very secure which is key in Brazil. It was just two of us so the place felt pretty spacey. Wifi is really great so I would even recommend it for a longer stay for vacation and work. Big FYI the place looks like an apartment in the 90s so it is outdated but entire Ipanema looks like traveling to the 90s. For us it was no problem and we really enjoyed our visit. I would stay here again whenever I come back to Rio. The communication with the owner is a little iffy but I think it’s because English is not his first language so his messages come across a little combative. I wouldn’t put much weight into it. Overall great experience for us!
