This place is PRIME location being about 1 block from Ipanema beach. The street feels safe, theres a 24 hour doorman and a locked entrance. The apartment is very clean and cute, nice lighting and has pretty much anything you might need. We enjoyed making coffee every morning and using the NYE champagne flutes that were left for us :) Was pretty pricey because of the time of year (new years eve) but it was perfect for what we needed!
