first the bad. the location on the app is not the same as the real location. I suggest you google map the actual location. That said the actual location is amazing 2 drug stores a bakery and 2 restaurants on the same block with in 500 feet. the next block over has a market. all your shopping needs can be met in a 5 minute walk. copacabana beach is a 5 minute walk away Ipanema beach is a 10 minute walk away. Several amazing restaurants in a short walking distance. My girlfriend and I always felt safe here.
The apartment has everything you need including a water filter. every bed room and living room has air-conditioning and a Tv. the wifi signal wasn't the best but with one text to the host they offered to bring over a wifi booster. my girlfriend works from home so Wifi is very important to us. I definitely want to say thank you to my host they are very gracious. I had an amazing time.
