We had a wonderful stay in this apartment!! Silvia and Daniel's apartment is in a perfect location in Rio... steps away from Arpoador in Ipanema Beach (where you can watch beautiful sunsets). The apartment was small but very clean and couldn't be in a better location near restaurants, shopping, public transportation, and right next to the beach. They were lovely hosts, very concerned about our well being and offered advice and help throughout our trip. There is AC in both rooms too so the apartment was very cool. I would definitely recommend staying here whether you have spent a lot of time there like myself or if this is your first time in Rio!
