This is absolutely the perfect place to stay for your time in Rio de Janeiro. We had stayed at this cozy apartment for a week in October. The space was cozy, but plenty large enough to accommodate our group. The place itself was very clean and offered all the amenities we needed. Ignacio even made sure that the apartment was soundproofed so you do not have to suffer from the noisiness of a busy street in Rio.
The location is stunning! You are only one block from the famous Copacabana beach and can go visit freely as you like. It is also very close to the subway if you prefer public transport. But it is equally easy to call a taxi.
Ignacio was an absolute joy! He offered us daily tips for places to visit and easily accommodated our requests. He made sure we were very safe and had everything we needed. His friendliness was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Rio!
Overall, I highly recommend this place. You won't regret it.
