Claudia's apartment was the perfect location in Rio. We were very close to Ipanema/ Leblun and Sugarloaf mountain, and the beach in front of the apartment is great during the day. Claudia is always on hand to answer questions and help with translation if necessary. There is a doorman 24 hours so getting and dropping off the keys is easy. She also has a guide to restaurants, bars and sightseeing in the area that's a great help. The apartment has one large bed in the front room and another room with either one or two single beds, depending on your needs. The third room in the back isn't really useable as there is no AC and the bed is very small. The couch can also be used as a bed though, it's pretty comfy and big enough. Wifi and TV are great, and there is a washing machine and drying rack! Great stay.
