Carlos place is wonderfull. Its a cosy appartment in the vibrant area of Copacabana. It is a 5 min walk to Copacabana beach. The area feels safe compared to many other areas in Rio. We didnt feel scared about going to the store or the beach alone. The bathroom and kitchen are new and fresh, with fancy sinks (in my opinion). We were a group of 4 and it was the perfect appartment for us. Carlos was really helpful, friendly and kind. I would definitly stay here again!
