I spent 4 nights in Jose’s apartment in Ipanema. The apartment is secure and perfectly located only 2 blocks back from the beach with restaurants and shops on your doorstep. The apartment is nicely styled with a comfortable bedroom including fan and air con, bathroom, kitchen, and a washing machine. Jose’s colleague met me on arrival and departure and waited with me until my cab came. Jose was excellent with communications and I would recommend this apartment to anyone!
