Apartment/ flat - Rio de Janeiro / Ipanema 2,5 bedrooms

"I would like to recommend this very tastefully furnished apartment in Ipanema (close to Copacabana as well). For Rio standards it is not even very noisy. Bedding, linen, china, kitchen appliances etc. are high quality and we liked a lot hanging out at the apartment in spite of all the wonderful restaurants, movies, shopping etc. Ipanema is offering. Excellent location close to the (safe) Metro-line (for once you should take the backmost exit and take the elevator up to the new observation platform, where you will have a wonderfull view!) and to the beach. Claudio, who speaks very well English and who met us for the keys has been very kind and helpful at all times!"

"Claudio, our charming host, is very friendly and helpful. The apartment is in a great spot, steps from groceries, shopping and the subway. It is a bonus to see the inside of a Rio apartment building and mingle with some locals. We would not hesitate to stay here again."

"Apartment is high up on the 8th floor but still very noisy, but then the location was great with metro, supermarket, bars, beach and restaurants all within walking distance. Apartment was dusty and could have been a bit cleaner, but overall the stay was ok for the price. Rio is a noisy city, so daresay everywhere is that way!"

"The apartment is clean, tidy and very well located. Two blocks to Ipanema beach and three to Copacabana beach. Footsteps to supermarkets, restaurants, bars and amenities. One block to General Osorio square' subway station. Quiet area and excellent neighborhood. The apartment does not need anything to bring, just yourself and your luggage. Highly recommendable for shorter or longer stays!!"

"Since now I have rented this flat twice, second time with Homelidays (btw, a good tool for checking) . Friendly communication with the owner of the flat. The appartment now even has fast internet and wifi. Perfect for me as freelancer to do some of my job overseas. For those who like, air conditioning works well, though for me the fans (all rooms) are sufficient at all. Great beds, clean, and high quality, beautiful furniture, it does not look cheap at all. The manager, Claudio, is helpful for hints concerning bars, restaurants and nightlife. Definitively will come back, soon, I hope."
