I stayed at this apartment for a month to include the week of Carnival and could not have asked for a better place to stay. Tania and her sister were very accommodating, responsive, and provided everything I needed to enjoy my stay in Rio. Also, the apartment is convienently located in Copacbana just a couple blocks from the beach and the subway from which to explore the entire city. I certain recommend Tania's place to other travelers and hope to return again soon.
