The apartment is the perfect place for a stay in Rio. It is spacious, nice furnishing. I stayed there alone and my bed room was to the backyard- for Rio, were street noise is everywhere, it was VERY quiet. Nevertheless you will have a fan system of the nearby hospital, which is doing some noise and some food smell. But still- in Rio it's the quitest accomodation I've ever had.
Around you house will beeverything- shops, restaurants, beach only two blocks away and the really great hippie market on sundays.
Thanks Karina! I'll come back for shure!
