The apartment is very well located on Ipanema beach. You are walking distance to the most scenic views in the city.
The apartment itself could use a little work. I did not have internet service the entire time I was there. Thankfully there was public wifi available which saved me. With no wifi, I could not connect to the television therefore could not stream or watching anything.
In addition there were was one bar of soap offered in one of the two bathrooms available.
I have to assume because I am the first person to rent the apartment the host was unprepared for my stay. Hopefully the next guest will have a different experience.
Being that I am Airbnb host and have used airbnb all over the world, I was surprised that when asked to stay in the apartment an extra 2 hours ( check out at 2pm versus 11am) that the host charged me for it.
I didn’t that was very accommodating.
