I stayed here with my partner. Great location in the middle of Copacabana. Very clean and just as described online. Bob was great, he was available to let us in even though we arrived late on a Wednesday night. All and all everything was great, except for two things, a shortage of hot water, which meant taking really quick showers, and the TV only had one channel, but then again, we weren't in Rio to watch TV, plus it gave us a chance to watch some interesting Brazilian shows I probably wouldn't have otherwise. We never even brought these issues up to Bob since they weren't a big deal for us. We stayed for 3 nights and really enjoyed our time there. Also, the shared patio space is awesome!
