Great experience, exactly as described. Loved the strong water pressure in the shower, and that of toilets. Everything was clean and neat, with simple typed-out instructions for wi-fi access and a nice welcome letter. Slight (very slight) con was that the bed could have been a bit bigger, as I was sharing the bed with my boyfriend, however this was to be expected given the reviews I had read. This place honestly was all we needed for our 3-day stay in Rio, location could not be more perfect, and the value for the price even better (this in my opinion is what makes this place great, so please do not change this :)). Maria is awesome as well, interacts with guests as much or as little as you'd like her to. Loved how she helped me out with a safety pin for my wardrobe malfunction! What made our stay extra extra enjoyable was how she even offered to wash my boyfriends clothes!!! So unexpected (we were planning to do it ourselves, and she graciously offered her assistance). Major cool points there. In all, I hands down recommend this place for any couple traveling to Rio, and even more so for a single traveler. It really is all you need. Thank you ladies!!!
