Great studio in Rio.
The metro is 2 minutes (walking distance) and it takes you to Ipanema beach, Copacabana beach, Macarena stadium, and the locations where you can start your journey to Christ the Redeemer and the sugar loaf. The metro only cost £1,05.
There are plenty of restaurants in the area, which was convenient as there isn’t an oven in the flat (microwave and fridge available)
I would recommend the flat to couples that are able to take the metro everyday and don’t mind not having an air con.
One thing I loved about the flat is that it has a filtered water machine which means you don’t have to buy bottled water everyday.
The host was really attentive and friendly. You can also self check in which is great. Security is present at all times in the building.
