This apartment is real value. As described, it is within walking distance to the fantastic Ipanema beach, excellent restaurants & bars, shopping, etc. It is located in a very safe part of the city with good protection from the street including a guard.
The apartment itselfs offers everyting you need for a relaxed and comfortable stay, including free WiFi, TV, fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, and enough shelve space for your clothes. We stayed 8 perfect days in this place with a family of 4 and would do it again, anytime. Highly recommended place.
Pedro, the host, is very very helpful. We arrived almost midnight and he waited for us to give us the keys. He explained the place and provided further information. During our stay we chatted a couple of times. He is very responsive and caring.
Last not least, if you like monkeys you may be lucky to see a family of Sagui right in the tree in front of the apartment's window to the street. They came in the morning and are so cute!
