Roger was a great host and made us feel welcome right from the start. He waited for us at the apartment and gave us great introduction to Rio. He gave us suggestions for activities to do and places to visit and even offered his contact information for any further questions we might have had. The apartment was very clean and had everything you might need during a vacation abroad. Pictures on the site represent exactly what we encountered when arriving to the apartment. The best part was the location- it feels very safe to walk around and it is literally a block away from the beach and the subway. I would definitely recommend this apartment. We had a great time!
