This place is clean, comfortable, and a great location. Easy to walk to Copacabana or Ipanema beaches. Building felt safe and secure. There was some miscommunication at check in. Make sure to clearly let the host know what time you'll arrive and if you won't have wifi/data during your arrival, be sure to let them know to meet you. They were accommodating and communicative about and extended check out, which we greatly appreciated!! The kitchen is minimally stocked for food preparation, however, there is plenty of plates, cups, and silverware. The place has nice air conditioning in every room and nice bathrooms. It was very comfortable for our group of 5.
