I loved Alessandra’s place! And I’m definitely coming back, everything is walking distance and you will find everything around the place (supermarket, restaurant,shops…) Copacabana only 5 minutes walk and you will reach Ipanema in less than 15 minutes. Safe neighborhood also, but uber is very cheap and comfortable and will pick you up and drop off in front of the building. Functional AC and all amenities in the kitchen if you wanna prepare some meals and also coffee machine available. All recommendations.
