Jairo is easily one of the kindest hosts we had during our time in South America and his apartment is a great place to explore Rio from. He personally met us at check in to explain everything, left us some snacks and drinks, as well as helped us coordinate tickets for a classic soccer match at Maracana! The location of the apartment is outstanding as you can walk to either Ipanema or Copacabana beach within a few minutes. The apartment was very clean and comfortable for our five night stay. We plan on staying here again next time we are in Rio and would recommended anyone staying at Jairo’s place!
