Our stay in Ana Lucia´s apartment in Rio de Janeiro, for a family Christmas vacation, was great. She was very helpful with information and with tips for our arrival (thanks!). The apartment is in a superb location, and is just as depicted in the photographs. There are plenty of restaurants and shops around, just a few meters away. The beach is just across the street, which is a plus!. Internet, air conditioning and elevator worked well. The building´s concierge changed frequently, but they all were friendly and helpful. This is definitely a great option for a visit to Rio de Janeiro.
