I wish I could give this stay 6 stars out of 5 - everything completely exceeded expectations and this is the perfect place to make you fall in love with Rio and get a comfortable, marvelous home in the city. Gilson was fantastic and extremely helpful and responsive - there were no issues whatsoever. Had I been in a different neighborhood or AirBnb, my experience would have like been much different, and not as great. The apartment is located in perhaps the best, most convenient part of Leblon, a stonesthrow away from the beach and some of the best options for food and nightlife the city can offer. There is an outdoor shower where you can wash off after a jaunt to the beach, and the bed is super comfortable. The flat is very clean and I can't stress how great of an experience I had because of it. I stayed about 3.5 weeks and wish I had extended to stay longer. Will definitely try and book again in the future! Thank you again Gilson! Rio legend!
