Dear Patrick
My children and I would like to sincerely thank you for your wonderful hospitality during our stay at your lovely home. We appreciate your prompt, helpful response and as providence allowed, we were able to get your confirmation at very short notice. Your home was comfortable and strategically located with easy access everywhere to all the amenities, Mall, groceries, an incredible record shop called 'Tracks'. Also just a short walk to the Jardim Botanic Gardens. A short bus ride to Ipanema.
One of your rooms even has a view of Christ the Redeemer: nice.
Your kind assistance with personal advice in English was reassuring and your attention to details and even in helping us with our early morning taxi booking was incredible. You made our stay in Rio memorable and the stay in your house validates every beautiful imagery which I have imagined from Tom Jobim's songs. Wishing you all the best for 2016. Feliz Natal.
