I vacation in Rio quite often and this was my 18th trip to the beautiful city. I came for 2 friends birthday festivities and stayed a few days longer after they all departed so I found Marcelo's place perfect. It is in the perfect location in Ipanema. For Americans it sits on the same block as Starbucks (I need coffee) and on a popular street with plenty of shops and restaurants. The photos show the property just as is. It is a charming flat that as everything you need.
The check in was easy, the door has a key pinned for easy entrance and you will be provided a physical key to access the building. It was a great stay. All the tis are smart tis so you can watch international shows or netflix, apple tv, etc. Great place highly recommend it.
