I had a fantastic stay in Rio, thanks to Janine and her hospitality and help! The apartment was magnificent - a spotlessly clean and cozy place in the center of Ipanema (one of the safest and coolest places in RJ). But it's not the apartment that made my stay so pleasant. Janine is such a beautiful person herself. I lost my luggage on the way to Rio and Janine helped me to fight with the airline representatives and offered her clothes and shoes till I get my stuff back. Felt like home. Thank you again, Janine!
