The place is great and super convenient! It is in the middle of the city, on the big road - so it’s easy to get to any place with Uber. Metro station is very close to, although we haven’t used it. The place is 15 min drive from domestic airport. There are supermarkets and places to eat near by, not mentioning the shopping mall right across the street.
Vera was very responsive and accommodating - she kept our luggage, since we arrived early, and let us stay a little longer, since there was no new guest that day. Really helped us to spend more time sightseeing, than worrying about logistics.
The apartment has everything you need - all the little details like extra toothpaste, sunscreen, basic meds, water, even some beer in the fridge! There were also maps, guides and metro cards for us to use. So useful!
Kitchen is a bit too small to cook, but we you probably could (we didn’t). Place is great for a couple.
Overall a great place to stay in Rio and is highly recommended!
