Nilma's place is wonderful! Coming from the USA for the Olympics with my family we were so happy to arrive safely thanks to Nilma sending her English speaking driver friend, Felipe, to pick us up at the airport. Nilma was so thoughtful to greet us with fruit, snacks and gifts! Short walking distance to beach but in a very nice location near metro and nice bakery across the street where you can get quick sandwiches made to order plus deliciou bakery items. We hope to return and would choose Nilma's place again! Love Rio and all the wonderful people we have met. Thanks Felipe for your help in getting my children at the airport safely to the apartment as well! Great service!
