Maria and her husband were the friendliest hosts I have had on airbnb. They made us feel very welcome.
We were always offered food and drink and our privacy was very well respected. When I was ill Maria went out to buy me Agua de Coco; They went above and beyond what was required.
The apartment was very clean and has a lot of character It is well located - there are loads of great restaurants nearby and the beaches are close.
I would definitely recommend for anyone looking to stay in Rio!
