Rose and Mauro was the best host I had ever had! I felt like a part of their amazing family and they are such warm people. Their place is amazing! It feels like home and its a slice of heaven in the amazing city of Rio. They treat you more than guests in their place but actual family as they have given me support, help, directions and love while I was there. I highly recommend staying in their lovely house if you want to feel the carioca hospitality at its finest! I will never forget them. Their post were accurate, their place was better than the photos that they had and their location is among the best places in town surrounded by amazing museums and close to the Maracana stadium. And the view from their house is amazing. I am looking forward to returning to Rio and staying again with them!
