This apartment is in a fantastic location. It is one block from the beach, 2 from the metro, and is walking distance to many restaurants, grocery stores, etc.
The price was amazing.
It is a very tiny apartment, but the place is well equipped with the needed things to solve a quick meal at home instead of going out, meaning stove, refrigerator, pans, and serving utensils. Unfortunately the refrigerator is in a different room than the kitchen, which I found a bit cumbersome. But refrigerator is good size and is in perfect condition.
Beds are comfortable, and the air conditioning was in perfect condition as well and was very quiet.
Towels were of good quality and plenty for our stay.
The communication was quick and responsive. Check in was a breeze and I am really appreciative with the fact that they let us keep the luggages a couple of hours more after check out.
The place is very tiny. It has only the minimum humanely possible space for 2 travelers in an apartment. But closet is ample and practical, and the place has everything that you may need.
This is not a place to hang out, though. It’s just a basic base camp to sleep and get ready for the next adventure in Rio. Rest assured though, however, that you will get a good night’s sleep to prepare you for it, and that you will be walking distance from everything.
