Ana's apartment was just how it looked in the pictures - clean, comfortable and charming. We had a very enjoyable stay there. It was only 2 mins (less than one block) from Copacabana beach and 5-10 mins walk from the nearest metro. It had everything we needed for our stay in Rio. It is surrounded by bars and good restaurants. I highly recommend Ana's apartment to anyone who wants a home from home in a very safe and pleasant area of Rio. Many thanks again to Ana who made us feel very welcome and was a perfect host.
