Maria Fernanda is a very attentive and helpful host. She made me feel welcome and offered helpful advice about the neighborhood and city. I locked myself out of the apartment (my fault!) and she solved my problem quickly and with the friendliest attitude. The apartment itself is very comfortable and completely equipped to cook, wash, live day to day. It is very close to the metro station. The neighborhood has all the amenities for daily life (markets, shops, stores) and for fun (restaurants, bars, bookstores, independent cinemas). The apartment has a bratiful view of Corcovado and Cristo Rendentor and of the beach. Great option overall. I fully recommend it.
