Leblon is most certainly the best place to stay in Rio for those in search of nice and safe neighbourhood a bit off the tourist traps with a wonderful and clean beach.
The apartment is just a 10 minutes walk to the waterfront.
The view is simply astonishing! The room (as the whole apartment) is very clean and you benefit from a separate bathroom and shower.
Regina and ZeZito are the loveliest hosts one can hope for, you feel very welcome and both are always ready to help with everything. They gently share their living room with a nice balcony. Certainly a place to return!
