The flat was clean and comfortable and it had everything we needed (including a great view of the Redentor every day). Sometimes we had breakfast or dinner on the beautiful balcony. Marvellous!
We enjoyed taking the dogs out for a walk around the neighbourhood. Marjon gave us lots of advice about nice places to visit and places of life music. From the beginning we felt very welcome and safe. So that really means: The area outside the door is safe! We enjoyed to take local bus transport and throughout our 1 month stay we often came back by bus late in the evening. Only twice we took a taxi.
Santa Teresa's charme at night is unbeatable (life music, artists exhibition). Marjon is a wonderful and kind host. So, if you want to have the very genuine experience, go to "top of the world".
