Israel's place was great, super safe (in a private condo with extremely good security). The house was like on the pictures, even though it would benefit from some renovation work, but nothing that prevents good utilization.
Israel was always super responsive and forthcoming, he would solve any problems we had and even bought a kit to cook using the wooden oven + a brand new Nespresso machine since the one in the house was not working.
A great experience that I would recommend to anyone looking for a safe choice in Rio where so many scams happen with housing.
Obrigado Israel pelo excelente atendimento e acolhimento!
