Marina and Milene where the best hosts I ever had. They advise really good places to visit, to eat good food, to go out etc. I felt like someone of the family even if I was travelling alone :) ! The place is really well located with a beautiful view of the city, and this is quite. You are close to the city center and you can take the bus just in front of the residence if you don't want to walk. Everything is clean, with all the equipment you need for your travel. In one word : the place to be in Rio :) !
