This is a wonderful place to stay on a visit to Rio. The apartment is ideally located in the fashionable district of Leblon. On your doorstep you have the beach, shops and some of Rio's best variety of bars and restaurants. The area is safe and a good starting point to see the sights of this wonderful city. Eider is fantastic host. He provides a wholesome breakfast of fresh fruit, coffee and breads to get the day started and is always on hand to give some tips or advice as to what to see and do. Staying at Eider's place in Leblon was the perfect choice for my time in Rio and I cannot recommend highly enough his friendly welcome and lovely apartment.
