Brenda's apartment is at a coveted spot in Copacabana next to the beach and near authentic Brazilian bars. In terms of cleanliness the place was impeccable with a great eucalyptus smell. She had all the amenities needed for a family of three, furthermore, the times we needed something extra, she was quick to reply to us and provide the item. I highly recommend this place for families and adults . We had a 12 month old and the outside noise was not loud enough to reach her little ears and wake her up ! After all, we were on the 11th floor. lol If you have a family and want to go to all the scenic places in Rio this place is the place to be.
