Marcelo's place is very cozy. Its good for 4 people but six is really tight. The location is very good!! Its a block from the metro, 2 blocks from the beach. Taxi cab driver knows the street and a lot of taxis passing by. Also there is a market down below where you can buy your groceries. You don't have to worry about the key because you have a code to get in the apartment. The apartment feels very safe. We'll definitely consider renting this place again. And Marcelo is a great help. He stays in touch with you just in case you have questions.
