Diana was the best hostess we could have ever hoped for. She has a beautiful home and was very welcoming and extremely helpful with good practical tips e.g. tour companies, which buses to catch and what to be careful for in Rio. Diana also speaks good basic English. The breakfast was sensational and coffee was delicious. The location is ideal between the two beaches with easy access to everything. We also felt very safe in the area even at night. We would definitely come back to stay! It was like a home away from home!
