The neighborhood it's beautiful, you can feel the soul of the place. You have to keep in mind that the neighborhood is made within a hill, walking is very nice but with many ups and downs for people with limited mobility, however you can always find a taxi. Santa Teresa it's closest to the Historic center of Rio and not too close to the beach, but you can get there easily and very quickly. Anna's place matches with the description perfectly, it's nice and you can have some peaceful time over there, the decoration it's very nice and too! I didn't have the opportunity to talk to much with Anna, however she always responded when i needed something, she's a very kind person, my impression it's that she always tries to give you some extra attention even if she is busy, all that details makes you feel like home. I totally recommend Anna's amazing studio in Santa Teresa to stay!
