This studio was perfect. Jan was out of town so Lordes met us upon arrival. While there was a bit of a language barrier everything worked out, she was super sweet and tried her best explaining things with our limited portuguese. Despite Jan being out of town, he was quick to respond to all our messages and inquiries about our stay. We were able to do a late check out on the day we were leaving which was nice since our flight did not leave until 9pm.

The studio was exactly as pictured on the website. The location could not have been better. The building and location felt very safe at all times. The 24 hour doorman was nice. There were tons of restaurants, bars, shops, etc. within walking distance. The metro was just a few blocks away, we only took it once to the Centro but it was nice to have it so close. We went to the fruit/veggie market and the sunday Hippie market, both awesome. Tried Nectar for breakfast/lunch, delicious lunch plates. One of our favs was on the beach, Posto 9 at the Uruguay flag, the carne sandwich, so good.

I can not wait to visit Rio again, it was such an amazing city. I would def stay at this studio apartment again if it is available!
