If you are in Rio, you can definitely stay here! The apartment is very nice, obviously the Highlight is the amazing view over Rio from the huge window. Cristina and her husband are very nice and helpful people, who made us feel very welcome and were always friendly and happy to give us advixce ecc. We also loved the interior design of the apartmenr and the location was amazing, close to all the attractions in santa teresa and some good reataurants. We always felt safe. The room is quite small but for two people it's perfect, you have everything you need. The bathroom is alright, but as it's shared by four people it can get a little messy. but apart from this small detail we loved everything about our stay and will definitely be back!
