This is a really great penthouse in a perfect location in Ipanema. Alex was very accommodating, a great communicator and even helped us with an early check in and late check out. That is a great gift. Alex also paid for our Uber to the airport for the stay of over a week. The beds are very comfortable and the water was hot in all the showers. Not a huge kitchen. The balcony is fantastic and you can hear the waves and enjoy the Rio vibe. Thanks Alex!
