Levy made me feel welcome from the very start prior to my trip and during my entire vacation. Levy provided me with information regarding the neighborhood, places to eat, sites to see, and made me feel safe and welcome to Rio. The location of the flat was perfect for me with being only two blocks from the beach and being on the boarder of Ipanema and Copacabana Beach. The flat looked exactly like the pictures, it was comfortable, cozy, and I loved the modern decor. The layout of the flat was perfect for me and the bed, and both couches were comfortable. I highly recommend this rental and any other rentals Levy has to offer. He provided me with a welcoming spirit to Brazil and made my trip even that much more fulfilling.
