Very well decorated and appointed apartment with, two huge flat screen TVs, kitchen, sink garbage disposal, washing machine and stunning views of Rio. The apartment is located in Protel Rio Flat Service apart-hotel which has a front concierge desk. The location is reasonably safe and close to the beach. There were two glitches with a brief lostt hot water and missing toilet paper when I was there. The owner fixed both issues quickly and was easy to communicate with both in Portuguese and English. However, for the price of rental these kinds of issues should not hapapen. This apartment is suitable for a couple or single traveler.
