We could not have found a better place to stay in Rio for over a week for the New Years celebrations. The apartment is on the top floor, away from busy streets, while it is only 2 blocks from the beach by Post 5. Our host, Cristian was kind, helpful, and accommodating to all of our needs - our group included 5 adults and 2 small children.
Apartment itself is clean, newly updated, and full of sunshine. The kitchen has all the necessities, including a sharp kitchen knife, which is almost unheard of in airbnbs. Both bedrooms have ACs as well as ceiling fans.
If you are looking for a Rio experience, look no further.
