Livia's place was great! A very bright and open apartment with a very cool view of Copacabana. You could see the Christ from the window :). Livia's place was within walking distance to the Copacabana beach and near many shops and restaurants.
Livia was a great host and responded quickly to any inquiries we had. She ensured that we had everything we needed for our stay and let us know about activities to do in the area. Her neighbor Christina was a sweetheart and greeted us upon our arrival. There was fruit, milk, and a delicious homemade orange/honey cake awaiting us, which was perfect after a long day of travel. Christina and Livia made us feel like we were home away from home. I would definitely stay again/recommend!
