Perfect location, perfect host ! I stayed there for 3 nights with a friend and we really appreciated the calm, the garden, and the fabulous breakfasts provided every morning by Frédérique. Santa Teresa area is also very nice, close enough to the center (you can walk to Lapa easily or take a bus or even better, short taxi ride ) and it gives you a nice break from the animated life of town. I highly recommend this place to people who enjoy a great host and a calm and beautiful environnement.
