Frederico and Marcela’s place was extremely clean and very organized. Actually, it’s probably the most organized Airbnb that I’ve ever stayed at. Check-in and communication between the hosts was also excellent. Having said this, I don’t feel like the area is very safe. I have lived in Brazil for 5 years and am generally able to distinguish “safe” areas from “unsafe” areas and I do have to say that the area the loft is in, isn’t the safest. For you to have an idea, several Uber’s and Taxi drivers refused to go up the hill to drop me off because of the abundant number of assaults & robberies happening in the area. In addition, there are posters up all over the neighbourhood warning travelers about the real possibility of being robbed. So, getting around by foot especially at night is challenging and finding an Uber is equally as difficult. If you are okay with this, though, I’d recommended Frederico and Marcela’s place. The view is spectacular.
