Had an excellent time at this apartment! Fabiana and Barbara were fantastic hosts, really easy to work with in arranging the stay and gave me some great suggestions for things to see and do during my travels. Awesome view from the window and exciting things happening in the neighborhood the second you walk out the front door. Lapa has a ton of choices for bars, restaurants, and other attractions with easy access to public transportation to get around Rio. 100% recommend this place for travelers looking for exciting nightlife and an air conditioned place to come back to after the beach!
