Martha is a wonderful woman, she is very kind & got a lot of interesting things to tell about RIO. Ask her to make a cup of coffee for you, I've never tasted such great coffee.

Nice apartment in the middle of Ipanema neighbourhood, 3-5 min from the beach, many bars around, 10 min walk to the subway station. The room is very small, but comfortable & clean) If you came to RIO for fun & adventures, not for staying in a hotel room Marthas apartment shuold be great for you!
