Carlos was very welcoming and very friendly with me. Had open arms and treated me as if we’ve been friends for years. Anything I needed he was available and happy to help. I highly recommend Carlos for anyone traveling through Rio De Janeiro. He lives in the heart of Botafogo which is very convenient for any traveler, Lives very close to the Metro,Supermarket and tons of amazing bars and places to hangout and have a bite to eat or have a beer or two.
