Had an awesome stay at Jose's apartment/flat in Ipanema. The apartment was well equipped and spacious. You couldn't ask for a better location, the Beach is a block away, shops and cafe's/ restaurants lined up on the street below! We bought groceries 2 blocks away from the spot and were able to use the amenities included in the apartment to cook up some food. We had no issues at all during our stay for the World Cup. At all times we felt safe and comfortable. Looking forward to using Jose's apartment in the future again when I comeback to Rio! Eu amo Rio de Janeiro!!!!
