Great location! The place was near the beach and in a safe area. Walking distance to Copacabana and leblon. It was pretty much what I expected. Shower and kitchen were a bit small but everything was functional and we had no issues with the apartment and it had everything we needed for our weeklong stay. I also really liked the hammock next to the window. Beatriz was very attentive and especially when we had issues checking in (which weren't her fault). She sorted everything out quickly for us. I would recommend this to anyone who wants an affordable place in Ipanema.
