First of all, I want to mention that this host is a very atentive and caring host! Heloisa is a fantastic woman, that will help you in any way she can. Since people dont speak much english in Brasil, and we did not speak portuguese, she was a great help!...She helped us with our mobilephones, getting local numbers, and about shopping and renting taxies for airport.
We were a group of 7 men during the end of World Cup, and we all had a fantastic time there. Great apartment with 3 bedrooms in a fantastic location in Rio. We had everything we needed just outside our door. There is a big construction going on next to this apartment building, so we woke up every morning from the drilling at 7am. But it was not the worst, atleast we did not have to set our alarm, since we always went up early for our exploring of Rio.
We would recomend this for everybody, very safe area with a doorman, elevator, and close to everythnig. Taxies just outside the door and metro 10 min walk.
I will for sure go back there if possible in the future.
Thank you Heloisa for your kind hospitaletiy !!
