Staying at Andrea's apt was like living in my own house. The area is Super safe, close to the main shopping malls in Barra da Tijuca and to renowned restaurants such as Serafina (NYC) P.J. Clarks (NYC) P.J. Chang (CA,USA) , Alessandro&Frederico (Brazilian-Italian) RioBrasa Steak House (Brazilian) and many others. Also, in the building , they have a little restaurant where you can order in (very practical)(Eating at restaurants is my hobby, LoL) . The doormen were always very polite at anytime. Anyway, on my next trip to Rio, I will definitely stay there.
Thank you Andrea.
