This is Rio's loveliest and safest neighborhood, the apartment was clean and had all the basics (lots of towels, all basic cookware), and the host was very accommodating and helpful. She even stocked the apartment with food for breakfast so we could eat when we arrived. The apartment is on the ground floor so it was not very sunny but was really accessible, which is great with suitcases and for the ease of coming and going. Highly recommended!
