Stayed here for a week and loved it! Situated in a great neighborhood close to plenty of restaurants, the metro, the beach, and the lagoon. Gilson was a fantastic host and very accommodating. Had everything I needed to be comfortable and I would happily stay here again if I was returning to Rio. Wifi worked very well (smooth video calls). The only downsides are the minimal kitchen and the lack of an elevator. Otherwise, I highly recommend it for any individual or couple visiting Rio.
