Service Apt in Rio area

Hello FTers,

Myself and some other colleague constantly travel to Rio for work. Typically 2-3 of us going there twice a month, staying for 3-4 days each trip. With the recent nonsense FX and inflation, decent hotels are now charging $250-$350 USD/night.

And I have suggested to my company that perhaps it make sense for us to rent a 2/3 bedrooms service apt until the end of our project, (mid2012).

I googled "Rio apartment" and got about 100 rental companies and are completely overwhelmed. Some of these websites look kinda shady and I don't want to risk company's money and end up getting robbed by a stupid deal.

Does anyone here have experience in renting monthly/weekly service apt in Rio ? Any recommendations ?

Thanks in advance.
