Our stay in Rio was excellent. Ana did a great job hosting us and accomodated very well our arrival and departure times. Her apartment is in a great location and felt very safe and secure. It is walking distace to shops, beach, food, and bars. We really liked the area and would definately stay there again. Ana is a great host and would definately recommend staying here. The apartment was well equipped with nececities. One downside is that the bathroom is a bit small but manageable.
