Appartment is ok for short stays for
max 2 people. I found it last minute in a rush. Host is friendly and helpful. I’ve been in many apartments in Rio and this one is outdated and isn’t really suitable for long stays. The kitchen sink is very small and the kitchen doesn’t have all utensils. It’s a good option if it’s your first time in rio and you have a small budget and you don’t plant to spend too much time in the apartment. I think for people who want to cook or work from home and have a cozy space this space may not be for you. The shower head is a bit weird you have to put yourself in a corner too get all the water to hit you. The upside is that the windows protect well from the noise which is rare in Rio when the apartment is street facing. The laundry downstairs is good but you have to pay. Many apartments in Rio I have stayed usually have the washing machine in the apartment.
