This is the second time we have stayed at one of Rafael's apartments (the other on rua Francisco Otaviano, Arpoador). Both times the apartments have been clean, in a great location, and complete with all the basic features expected in an apartment. Rafael has always been attentive to our requests, and has been easy to communicate with. Although this apartment was a studio, it felt roomy enough and was conveniently located very close to the beach, supermarket, and a number of restaurants. Would highly recommend staying in this apartment.
Cheers, Mario and Rodrigo
