There are no words that will do justice to the view from the apartment. It's quite BEAUTIFUL!
Mariana and I didn't have to interact much because all her instructions are super clear and spot on. The apartment itself is extremely clean and elegantly decorated with Brazilian art. It has a great shower, comfy bed and excellent WiFi speed. Moreover, the entire building's staff makes you feel at home too (reception, maintenance and cleaning).
The location of the place is EVERYTHING. It is a very safe neighborhood and only two blocks away from the beach. Don't think it twice, book it right away. You will be happy you did it.
Safe travels!
