We were a group of three guys and felt very comfortable in the apartment and also in the building. Even though the area seemed very secure (brazilian standards) we felt even better with the security service.
The apartment itself was clean, met the standards advertised and was provided with new towels every day.
I don't know where the picture of the view onto copacabana was taken but definitely not out of the apartment it self because it doesn't have a balcony. The distance to copacabana is accurate though.
The communication with Genilza was very good! She speaks fluent english and always replies right away!
All in all we really enjoyed our stay in Rio and the apartment!
