This place is so special! You will love the unique and charming neighborhood, the amazing food, the warm people. One of our favorite things to do was lie on the hammock with a drink and enjoy the live music from the bars across the street in the afternoon. The house has wonderfully equipped - we stayed for weeks and had all the appliances we needed.
One tip if you are trying to get an Uber - we were able to get one faster by using the address of a bar/restaurant next door (Portella, for example), or using Largo dos Guimarães as a pickup point. It’s only a few steps away and it seems to make it a bit easier to get a ride.
Again, this is the loveliest neighborhood in Rio and you will absolutely fall in love with this home and location.
