This apartment would be worth the price solely on the strength of the view, which is phenomenal. However everything else is great too! The location is perfect, halfway between Ipanema and Leblon. It's well furnished and homely, much unlike many AirBnB apartments setup to be rented. Mariza is super friendly and responsive. The concierge is friendly and helpful.
I'll definitely try to book it again if I go back to Rio!
