Perfect Ipanema location; Beautifully designed; Pied-a-terre set up.
The Good:
- Décor professional modern high quality finishes/hardware/furniture.
- Living area comfortable.
- Very comfortable mattress.
- Good A/C.
- Central location steps to restaurants, shopping, 2 blocks to beach. Doorman building, Felt very safe.
- Excellent communication from host.
The Bad:
- Showing some wear & tear: dingy sofa, chipped furniture & wall corners, some loose fixtures/handles.
- No welcome book /house guide for washing machine + hot water use/ area tips + favorite restaurants etc etc
- instant water heater got shower water warm, but never hot.
Things to consider:
- Bathroom is beautiful but tiny (airplane size) as is the bedroom…
if you’re big or plus size this may not work.
- Kitchen great for leftovers, morning coffee, snacks etc, but not for actual cooking.
- windows old = road noise …but bedroom at back so no issue sleeping.
Overall RECOMMENDED.
Would definitely stay again!
