Márcia's studio is nicely designed and decorated to accommodate two people comfortably. Everything is at hand, it is fully equipped with a nice kitchen and comfortable bed. The location is superb, right in the middle of Lapa, the Center of nightlife in Rio. You can go walking to all night attractions of the area. The building is safe with a janitor taking care of entrance 24hs a day. Marcia is a very nice person, she took care of all details, gave us hints and made our stay be the best. I agree with one of the other reviews, staying at Marcia's studio gives you the comfort of a nice hotel with the human touch. And last but not least, when we arrived the previous guests had left some niceties on the fridge like some coca colas, water, etc. and we did the same for our next guest, a nice touch to make the stay even nicer. Marcia's studio is my place now when I am going to Rio and I fully recommend it.
