Patricia's apartment was perfect. The view from the wall to wall windows and balcony is incredible. The apartment is just as pictured. The house is in a quite neighborhood, and the bed is very comfortable. Patricia was very responsive to my questions and was helpful in arranging an English speaking driver to pick me up from the airport. Although, she was away during my visit, Julian was there to greet me. He was a great host and was very helpful in in arranging a guide for hiking. I recommend using Uber to get around in Rio, which was very convenient from the appartment. I could not be happier with my stay and highly recommend Patricia's appartment.
