Fantastic apartment only 3 blocks from Copacabana beach who could ask for more!! Marcio was a great host he was quick to reply to messages, the apartment is just as described on airbnb, it is so nice and homely we didn't want to leave, we even extended our stay as we loved it so much. The beds were comfortable, TV was great watched lots of movies in English fab, WiFi was brilliant, kitchen small but great for our needs cooked a few stir frys, shower lovely and hot, living room nice and comfortable with ceiling fans in both rooms. Lots of bars and restaurants and shops nearby, we particularly liked the bar across the road they even played us Beatles songs as we are from Liverpool!! The all you can eat pizza was also nice $25 a head on left on way to beach, the cafes on the beach are also good with live music every night, expect to pay a $6 supplement not much and well worth it. We will definitely be back loved Sugar loaf mountain, Christ the Reedemer, Maracana football stadium, Steps in Laps and much more, what a great place to live, thanks Marcio you were a fabulous host.
