I feel lucky to have the opportunity to enjoy Anna's warm hospitality and friendship for almost a month. Anna's house is the perfect choice for longer stay in Rio. Santa Teresa is unique, charming, historic, quiet and safe neighborhood of Rio, the house is in a perfect convenient location, close to many restaurants, bars, supermarket and cinema. Santa Teresa is very well connected to most of the sightseeing attraction of Rio, and you will feel privileged to stay in the area and return to the house after a busy day.

The house itself is AMAZING, very well maintained, safe and clean. The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed. The bed is really comfortable to enjoy long sleep. The bathroom is super chic with the polished concrete feature and the shower's water pressure is really strong. The huge, stylish living room is there for you to use and share with other guests. Fast WI-FI. I actually stayed most of the time in the room called "Amazing studio", so make sure to check out all the four great rooms available in the house.

There are no words to describe Anna; she truly cares of her guests' experiences. She has lived overseas long years and still traveling frequently, which is definitely helps her to make instant connection with different guests from different culture. She is much more than a host and often goes beyond her responsibilities with help and advice, without you feel she is making any effort. Everything is so natural and honest about her. I woke up sick with high fever the day before flying back to London. Anna was looking after me, getting medicine and food. The next day I was good as new, ready for the long flight and making my last day in Rio perfect. Anna was joking that maybe I got sick because I was missing Rio already. I think she was right :)

You cannot go wrong booking at Anna's. Highly recommended! Looking forward to come back to Rio and stay at Anna's house again.
