This is a great place to stay. The location is fantastic--a block from the beach, in the midst of busy Copacabana but also a short distance from quieter streets and neighborhoods. Despite being on a busy street the apartment is quiet, as it is on the top floor. The apartment itself is very comfortable. The wi-fi is excellent. And the terrace is a great place to relax. Well worth the price! Plus Valerie was a great host--always responsive to queries in a very short time.
