Katia’s place is absolutely amazing! We loved everything about our stay there. The location is easily accessible by bus and metro, Copacabana beach is 5 min away by foot, lots of shops, banks and restaurants are near the apartment. Katia made such an effort to make us feel at home - providing water and snacks and everything we needed. Whenever we had any questions or problems she responded immediately and she also gave us very useful tips about Rio. She and her husband are the nicest people! It’s worth going to Rio just to stay in Katia’s wonderful apartment :)
