We canceled our reservation for this rental that should have begun on June 4th in Brazil. So, when we arrived the address was not what was given to us. Once we made contact with the property contact, he gave us the "correct" address across the street. This is not what we expected. When we walked to the door, two homeless men where eating by the door and we further learned that this road brings you into the favela! This is not what my family and i signed up for! Next...
When the man brought us upstairs to the room, the rooftop was inhabited by 2 pitbull dogs. This is Not what we expected since the host knew we had two 5 pound Yorkies. So, not feeling safe and also feeling scammed by the incorrect address etc.,
It's my belief that this may be an on-going scam. Families rent, find out the home isn't exactly what was expected, cancel then the host keeps the portion that is nonrefundable. I'm not happy!
Eu não recomendo .
