We really enjoyed our stay at this family run accommodation. Our Brazilian hosts were most welcoming and helpful, letting us check in early, watching our bags after check out and being generous with their time and advice. Although the rooms are not too big or luxurious, they are certainly clean and pleasant, breakfast is plentiful and authentic, there is a beautiful view of the copacabana neighbourhood and surrounding hills from the two balconies, with its hammocks, chairs and a pool table to relax and retreat from the heat. The neighbourhood is very friendly and safe, although the walk up the hill will keep you in good shape and burn off any beach side snacks or drinks, (motorbike rides up are a cheap and quick alternative if you don't fancy sweating). Thank you for a wonderful stay especially the lady of the house Vera for her kindness.
