This is probably the nicest house I've stayed in in Brazil. Nicer than many apartments I've stayed at in Ipanema and Leblon.
First of all, it's huge. I had the entire 3rd floor to myself. Which means I had all of the incredible views of Rio. Seriously, the pictures don't do it justice.
My room had A/C, which was amazing.
The wifi was perfect. Had full bars throughout the house.
I could easily see myself coming back here and staying for a long time. So comfortable.
Yeah, it's in a favela, but I didn't mind. Adam called a taxi for me, and they brought me straight to the door of the house. Very convenient.
