A very nice flat near to the Copacabana. Everything worked out well. It isn't difficult to find, though almost none of the taxi drivers knew the street. In this case, just tell them about the Copacabana Palace and then point them to the right direction. This is important, especially at night (which was after 6pm when I've been there).

Also, there is a doorman 24/7, so it feels really protected there. The flat's balcony doesn't reveal much of a view, but it is quite spacious. The whole apartement is really neat and clean and there even are some really useful books for visitors from all over the world (I found a german guide, helped me loads!).

Overall, I really recommend this appartement!

If you have trouble finding the flat or have some questions regarding the flat or things to do while in Rio, it is also possible to contact Max. He will give you really valuable advice (he sent us a mail with some pretty cool insider tips where to go at which time, which we followed as far as possible! Visit the Morro de Leme! It's worth it!) :)
