Marcelo and his wife are really friendly people who speak very well English and help you with everything. Marcelo gives you nice tips. The room was very clean and the open bathroom with jungle theme a nice bonus. We felt safe in the area. If you are sensitive to noise bring some earplugs cause it can be a bit noisy at night. Metro is about 20 minutes walking away. Great acai and cheese bread place for breakfast 25 minutes walking. Hill on and off. Bit tiring sometimes. Mini kitchen well equiped. Marcelo provides free bread, cheese spread, juice etc for the first days. There's even an iron available in the room. Wow great service!
