Rose’s thoughtfulness and hospitality is enough to make the stay worth it. Top floor apartment, 2 mins from Copacabana Beach, super market and pharmacy nearby, couple of local restaurants. It’s very convenient. Tourist info and Metro and bus stops nearby too. It is quite noisy as it faces the street but I get the impression that most apartments in Rio have this and after you shut the windows, it just becomes background that you don’t hear. Has concierge downstairs so feels safe. Honestly, Rose’s communication and care just tops it off! She provides for everything it’s great!
