The best place to stay in Rio!! Right next to the Copacabana and 10 min walk away from Ipanema.
We stayed 4 nights in Arildos flat (3 people) and we loved it. The flat is very spacious with a nice kitchen, a bedroom and a big living room with couch, table and another bed.
The neighborhood is very quiet and safe and it is easy to get a taxi. Right in the front of the building is a taxi stand.
