Mauricio was probably the BEST HOST we have ever had on AirBnB! He asked for our special needs and interests, which was getting to know great Brazilian music, and he would do some research and let us know up to 18 options per day to listen to live music in Rio.
The apartment is bright, clean and looks like on the pictures. The kitchen is well-equipped, there‘s working air conditioning and an immaculate bath room.
Being situated close to the beach is a huge plus of this apartment. The area has lots of supermarkets, restaurants and a metro station in walking distance. We always felt secure (yet no reason to be uncareful in Rio!).
Due to the main road in front of the windows and the air conditioning, you need to be prepared for noise, also at night. Just bring some earplugs - they will do!
Thank you, Mauricio and Elza, for having us! It was a pleasure and we would definitely come again!
