Heloisa's place is ideal for a family with children. Three comfortable rooms and two toilets just off the corridor. The toilets were very clean and the kitchen well appointed. Although the building is slightly tired, the location makes up for it. 5 mins walk to copacabana/ ipanema beach, the supermarket is round the corner, money exchange just across the street, so is the bus stop and plenty of taxis to be hailed down outside the main gate. We did not feel unsafe at anytime but were of course vigilant when walking around. There was everything in the kitchen to make breakfast at home possible. woukd come again.
