We stayed at Heinz's place during our 12-day trip to Rio and we don't have a bad word to say about the place. Location and the flat itself was superb, but it was Heinz who was the best part. Local tips and constant communication and recommendations were a fabulous touch, be it what to eat or whether we needed fresh towels and bedding.
Furthermore, we stayed during the outbreak of Covid-19, and there were genuine fears we wouldn't be able to leave the country and return home given the travel restrictions. During all of this, Heinz was extremely reassuring and offered to let us stay if we couldn't get our flight back to Europe.
Don't have a bad word to say about anything. Equally, if you wanted to stay here, you have our glowing recommendation. Lovely place, lovely guy, 5*!!
