We rented this apartment during carneval 2015. It is in a great location on Copacabana, two blocks from the beach and the metro. The apartment was clean and looked exactly like the pictures. Kitchen on the small side with to plates and no stove, but it was big enough for basic cooking. Leila is a great host and answered all our emails quickly and met us on time at the apartment. Upon arrival she gave a good introduction to the apartment and the neighbourhood. We highly recommend this apartment.
