Our immediate attraction to Bea's guest house was the setting - the house sits on a hill below the main house surrounded by a beautiful garden looking across to the famed Cristo - which looked down upon us night and day. Once we arrived we discovered the true gem - Bea. She is a delight and made us feel truly welcome. She had thoughtfully set out welcoming snacks and a basically stocked refrigerator. The house has glass sliding windows and doors to afford a complete view if one wishes, but privacy if one prefers. The beds are very comfortable and there is ample storage space. The best time for us was sitting on the patio or in the living area just enjoying the view, listening to the birds and watching the occasional monkey. The kitchen is nicely equipped.The bathroom has a tub/shower combination. To travel to central Rio there is Uber ( be patient as the waiting time can be several minutes) and there is also a local taxi service - both alternatives are inexpensive. Ask Bea about the local yellow taxi app. Bea is also quite helpful - if you wish - in guidance to the restaurants and Rio sites. All in all a wonderful three days and nights in a setting more like a family guest house than just a place to stay.
