Carlos was a great host and his apartment is perfect if you're looking for somewhere in a good location with a bit of space. We loved the neighbourhood of Botafogo and were in easy access of other areas such as Copacabana, Ipanema and Lapa.
The facilities are basic but suited us perfectly, hot water and wifi and TV to watch the Olympics on!
Beds were comfortable and the balcony overlooking the football pitch is cool to relax on. We had the best week in Rio and would recommend Carlos as a host!
