My third time staying in Dani's apartment and i will always look to stay there when I'm in Rio. The location is the best part but there really is nothing I can say bad about it. It is steps away from a shopping center that has shops and places to eat and is only a block away from a subway entrance to get around Rio. The restaurants around Botafogo are great, I recommend Tuto Nhoque which is a couple blocks away from Dani's apartment. Also Christ the Redeemer and Mirante Dona Marta are both a 20 minute uber ride away.
There are also a couple of markets nearby to stock up the ice cold refrigerator in the apartment. Dani provided towels and linens and everything else you might need on your stay. She also accomodated a late check out due to my late outbound flight. Dani, I wish all apartments were like yours and I will be back to stay in September or October so I hope it is available otherwise I may have to adjust my holiday until it is :)
