We stayed at Marco's apartment in the 1st week of the Rio Olympics. We were a group of 8 family members and friends. Its a perfect location next to the Copacabana beach and also a 5 minutes walk to the Olympic beach volleyball stadium. Apart from that its also nearby to the metro and easy to get to the Olympic Park and also easy to get to all other parts of Rio. The apartment is functional and spacy enough to accommodate 8 people. The big plus is the huge and lovely open balcony where we spent alot of enjoyable time having breakfast and hanging out drinking caipirinhas!
The organisation with Marco went very smoothly. We would recommend Marco's place highly.
