Wonderful introduction to Copacabana
Submitted: August 25, 2012
Stayed: August 2012
It was our first visit to Copacabana, so we wanted to stay close to the beach. We also have two kids, so the typical hotel rooms are a little difficult on space for us.
Danny's condo satisfied both criteria wonderfully. There was plenty of space for all of us. The apartment is located one block away from Copacabana, and is walking distance to Ipanema, Arpoador, the subway station... There is a favela nearby, but there's almost always a police car parked right in front of the entrance to the apartment, so it's safe to walk around. There are many little places to get street food and supermarkets for any kinds of supplies. Folks who manage the condo were responsive and courteous.
The only suggestion for Danny is that the place could use just a touch of TLC. There were some lightbulbs out, others non-matching, batteries missing or not working in remotes, absence of toilet paper, etc. I would probably pop in a microwave to replace the old toaster oven. These are small things and inexpensive to address, and should make a difference for travelers far away from home :)
