We are a family of 4 and we really enjoyed our stay at this apartment. It is very spacious, comfortable, and has been totally renovated. The main suite and bathroom are huge. The whole apartment has a wrap around balcony with a partial sea view. The location is within a short walk to supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants. During our stay we had a few requests that were met right away by Victor and Rafael. We did not notice any construction noise as mentioned in one comments. We would recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Rio.
