If you want to have great living quality, yet don't want to break the bank, Daniel's place is the one only place in Ipanema. We were so lucky we got to book his place, considering we made the last minute reservation. We were staying at the other place in Ipanema, and it was not so good. Hence we needed to book other place last minute. Daniel's place had just those days we needed, and all others were booked.
His place was all white and spotless clean. The WIFI and AC were strong. The view on the top 22nd floor was incredible.
Daniel was very accommodating. The check-in and check out time posted was 2 PM and 10 AM, but he let us check in at 11 AM and check out at 1 PM so that we didn't need to hanging else where waiting. Such a wonderful host.
