Jeanne's place is absolutely amazing. Gorgeous views of the beach and right by the Vidigal Fevalas. Jeanne herself is extremely helpful and available if you need anything at all. We felt safe and relaxed here. There is a small kitchen so you're able to cook a few basic things if you don't want to brave the stairs too many times. Also, the view from the top balcony is unreal!! This was my first time to Rio and it was a great way to kick it off. Ipanema is within walking distance and so too is Copacabana if you're feeling a bit more energetic. It's rather close to the meeting area for hang gliding too if you're interesting in doing that! I definitely recommend staying here..!
