THIS PLACE has an awesome bang for your buck value. It's location is perfect and within walking distance of everything you could need (restaurants, laundry, beach, bars, bus stops...). It's safe on itself and in a safe area as well.
Inside it's kept very clean. Has a pair of hammocks to "hang" around in (pun intended), kitchen supplies (like you need to cook with so many nice restaurants around), plenty of storagr space for your travel wares, and a nice bathroom.
When (and not if) I come back to Rio De Janeiro I wouldn't look elsewhere to stay.
THE HOST, Bob, was a friendly one. He was very resourceful, helpful and willing. He was nice enough to start off my stay with a few bottles of water (a must in Rio) and a few snacks!
