  Hi Petra,
  
  I want to thank you for the things you have added to the apartment like the inflatable mattress and the clothes hanger, they were both very useful,
  Also, all the staff was amazing and I would recommend this place to anyone,

  Petra was a great, attentive and responsive host. Communication with her was impeccable and the apartment was in a great location and a great building. The apartment itself was comfortable and nicely decorated. Would definitely recommend this place to friends!

  I recently spent six weeks at the apartment Torre in Ipanema and only have good things to say about my stay there. The apartment is perfectly located close to many restaurants, the beach, and other attractions. It is very clean, well decorated, and in a well managed building. Looked at a few other places before renting this one and the other places definitely did not compare to this well-kept unit. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone else.

  I stayed in Apartment Torre in Ipanema for the month of May 2011 while working in Rio and couldn’t have chosen a better place to live! The best part about the apartment was its central location and easy access to everything Rio has to offer. It’s a five minute walk to the metro that takes you to Botafogo, Centro, etc., five minutes to the grocery store and shopping along the main strip in Ipanema, five minutes to the beach, and five to Lagoa. The staff are charming and helpful and ensured I had everything I needed during my stay. The apartment itself was beautiful and comfortable. All of my guests would walk in and say “WOW!” They were so impressed with how great my place was. It was clean, everything felt like new, and the kitchen had all the essentials I needed. The rooftop pool was an awesome bonus! Petra and her team at Rio Bay Housing were so friendly, generous, and helpful and made my stay in Rio so easy and straightforward. I will absolutely stay in this apartment again the next time I am back in Rio. I must have looked at 45 places and emailed 25 people and I feel so lucky that I found Apartment Torre. It was one of the best parts about my trip to Rio!

  Recently had an excellent two week stay in the apartment in Ipanema.
  The apartment is well situated in a very safe, quiet street just a couple of blocks from the beach and there are lots of bars, restaurants and shops within a short walk.
  It is private, quiet and cool (despite temperatures hitting 44 degrees while we were there) and it is well equipped (although it does need a few more utensils to cook with and general things like glasses etc - this, I think though, has been addressed). The washing machine is efficient and there's room on the small balcony to dry clothes. There was a slight drainage problem from the machine but nothing serious. Air conditioning works well, though we didn't need it often as the apartment (thankfully) is never in full sun.
  The rooftop pool gets all day sunshine and although smallish, is just big enough to swim in. There are sun beds, tables etc around the pool area.
  There's a daily electric usage limit which concerned us at first but it really wasn't a problem and we were well within the allowance at the end of the rental period.
  Finally, the staff at the apartment block are probably the friendliest I've come across - they're always pleasant and very helpful.
  I loved the apartment and would happily stay there again. If it's available, grab it...
