I finally found the dream place in Rio:) Over last 10 years i have been traveling to Rio and fell in love with the city but always had challenge finding a perfect place to stay for me and my family. Now finally i have found it. Alex place is really nice. Well decorated. Has washer and dryer inside the unit. Oven and best blender i ever used:) There are many closet spaces and this place is brand new and clean. Location is the best you can find in Rio. Safest in Rio. Great building and access to all shops and resturants. 20 steps to beach! Building has pool, steam sauna and gym and another smart fit next to this building! Great chicken grill place on charcoal down the building with best coffee shops and steak house. Best Rio farmers market 2 minute away once a week. I highly recommend this place and Alex and Pedro are extremely nice.
