George is a cool guy! We arrived after midnight, so he gave us the wifi code for a bar near his place, so we could contact him to help us with the luggage. His house is brand new, stylish and has the most amazing view ever. The bed is also new and very comfortable with a window above your head so you can see the birds fly over. All the pictures match: you can even see Christo! The walk up is okay and the first part you can get a very cheap mototáxi (3 reias), but we never had to use it. The people in Babilônia are nice and even after dark it's save to walk around, you just have to get used to the guys and police with weapons who control the neighborhood. Don't be afraid of them, they are nice guys with just another way of living. Tourists are very welcome over there. The whole experience was authentic Brazil and we would love to live there instead of the boring streets in Copacabana (where you have got be more careful). I would suggest this please to all of my friends, muito obrigada George!
