First, I would like to say that Jamie is an excellent host. Very quick to respond and although he was unable to be there at the exact moment of check-in, check-in with the front desk was seamless. We even received a bottle of a local beverage to start off our vacation with :). Jamie, however, was able to introduce himself in person shortly after check-in to answer any questions and reiterate that we could reach out at any time.
The stay was great! All basic needs and more were met. Including the front desk holding the key which was extremely convenient, as it allowed us to avoid any chances of losing the key. It also allowed occupants to leave the apartment at different times without inconveniencing anyone. Additionally, the location is convenient (near food options, 24 hr grocery store, currency exchange, metro, and a few short blocks from Ipanema Beach -Posto 8 & 9).
I would definitely stay again.
