We stayed in Henri's apartment for a week over Carnival with a group of 6 people and felt super comfortable.
Henri has communicated in advance very courteous and reliable, and is an extremely friendly, accommodating host.
The apartment is spacious, cozy and lovingly decorated and looks even more cozy in real than in the photos. The furnishings left nothing to be desired, there are several bathrooms, plenty of common area, the individual rooms offer sufficient privacy and all beds were very comfortable. The highlight of the apartment is the terrace, where you can sit surrounded by nature in peace and forget the hustle and bustle of Rio.
The area is very nice, rather quiet and we felt very safe at all times. Supermarkets, restaurants and the nearest metro station are within walking distance, and the central location of Henri's apartment meant that it wasn't expensive to go anywhere by Uber.
We can recommend the apartment 100% and would come back there anytime.
