Staying at Ana's flat in Rio quickly felt like home. The apt is very cozy, perfectly equipped and sized and is located in a great urban area of Rio which is perfect for a tourist who wants to stay out of the basic mainstream touristy Rio. Flamengo beach is perfect for sports activities and just one block away, it reminded me of Venice beach in LA. Catete where the apt is located, is a cool and young urban neighborhood and has more than what you need, restaurants, coffeeshops, bars, banks, pharmacies, supermarkets, everything is there and within walking distance, Metro is just a 2mn walk, Santa Teresa is a nice 25mn walk, I really enjoyed staying there. I will definitely chose Ana's appartment again during my next stay in Rio.
