Simone was an excellent host and communication was easy. While the apartment is small, it’s comfortable and I found it clean. Check in was easy. There’s an elevator and air conditioning. Amazing location in Copacabana with all the necessities nearby… beach, pharmacies, stores, restaurants, cafes. Walkable to rest of Copacabana and Ipanema. As a queer traveller, I felt safe in the building and treated well by its staff. I would gladly return.
