We had a fantastic time in Rio during our stay in Monica's apartment. Apartment was spotless and indeed perfect for couples.
Location is great. Right in between Copacabana beach and Ipanema beach (max 10 minutes walk to either one) in a safe neighborhood eight in front of the metrostation and bike station (Bike Rio).
Monica has prepared an extensive map with handy tips how to get to places, how much it costs and how long it takes approximately. During our checkin she gave us a few extra recommendations after asking us about our interests. She was also very flexible with a very early checkin and late checkout. Taking all this into account, we are absolutely delighted to have chosen this apartment for our stay in Rio.
Next time in Rio we will definitely try to stay here again. Totally recommended!
