Gustavo – and Michelle – are great and friendly hosts. Both of them made sure we would have a nice stay in Rio. The apartment looks very nice. The renovation integrated the space very well. It is very well equipped also. Full kitchen appliances, as well as some extras like the laundry machine is also a dryer (we got a few days of rain and that made a lot of difference), and some products that we had there ready to use like laundry detergent, softener, shampoo, liquid soap. And some snacks like Pringles, chocolate bar, etc.
On our last day, my boyfriend was not feeling well (suspicion of COVID), and Gustavo was there offering help to take him anywhere necessary or get information and even offered us an extra night with no extra cost. In the end, none of these was necessary, but it does make a lot of difference when you are in a foreign country and your hosts make you feel you can always count on them for anything you need. I highly recommend Gustavo and Michelle.
