The apartment is on border between the Leme and Copacabana neighborhoods. This area is great. This area is very safe and much more peaceful than the rest of Copacabana. There are some outstanding restaurants in the area and some night life as well. You can rent bikes across the street, rent a paddle board at the other end of the beach, or go for an ocean swim.

From Galeão International Airport, it is a 40 minute to 1 hour cab/Uber ride depending upon route, traffic, time of day and year (note that after 9PM, all day Sunday, Holidays and the month of December taxis are 20% higher. The higher rate is indicated by flag "2").

From the Santos Dumont Aiport (domestic) it is 35 reais taxi ride (15 minutes).

From the bus station it is about a 50 reais cab ride. You can take Uber, but the meeting place is near the gas station outside of the terminal.

From either of the airports or bus station, you have the option of taking a luxury bus (frescão in portuguese). The cost is about 15 reais. You need to take the bus which goes to Copacabana. You would get off at the Hilton Hotel on the corner of Avenida Atlantica and Princesa Isabel. Note on Sundays and holidays this bus stops on Barata Ribeiro which is a 10 minute walk to the apartment.
