Thais' place is absolutely beautiful. The apartment was extremely clean, super neat and very well designed, just as the photos suggest. It was just perfect for me and my partner
Thais was also the perfect host in terms of local information, we wouldn't have had nearly as good a time in Rio if it wasn't for all her help and tips. She was open and welcoming and made everything easy!
The location was awesome; a short walk in one direction (or bus) found us in Santa Theresa enjoying some lovely little shops or dinner of an evening with great atmosphere, and another direction was Lapa with its shops, restaurants and many bus routes taking us all over Rio (which Thais helped us out with).
Also the humming bird outside the window and monkeys we spotted walking home one day added to our experience!
We would recommend (and have!) this to friends.
