Denise is indeed a superhost! She promptly replied to all my inquiries. I felt so welcome and comfortable when i first met her. She was very helpful with directions, must see places, restos and assisted me well in getting taxi cabs. Since she lives in the house, she is very available anytime you need help with anything.
The neighborhood is very nice, quiet, very walkable, near the lagoon, train station and buses, restos and groceries. Her home is very neat - bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen.
Denise is very friendly, sociable and a great host. I will definitely stay with her when i come back and also recommend her to my friends. Thanks Denise for makig my stay in Rio was more fun and comfy.
