The studio suited our needs perfectly for our stay in Rio. It was well appointed with everything we needed plus a few extra touches that Alex was so kind to provide. He added a towel warmer, wardrobe fan, blackout shades and multi-colored lighting fixtures. The place was clean and cozy. The keyless entry was a nice feature. Alex was very thorough while telling us about the studio. He has been very quick to respond to all our many questions starting from months back when I first booked. We booked a tour with him to see parts of Rio that tourists wouldn't normally have privy to because of distance. He was so kind to us and made sure we were feeling well during the tour. He took us to his favorite acai and organic buffet place. He is simply the best! Would recommend and use again if in Rio.
