My brother and I had a wonderful time for 4 days in Rio. This location is central, great view, clean and quiet. But the best for us are the hosts. Lucas is really helpful, he takes time to explain us good tips to visit his city, and even invited us to share some time outside (just sorry that we didn't manage to follow). But also takes time with his flatmate at home to share about their life, travels, brasilian culture, food and breakfast... I just fully recommand it !
