Katia is such a fantastic and warm host! My friend and I absolutely loved staying here. Katia was very generous with sharing information about Rio and Brazil we would not have otherwise know from guidebooks. The room is clean and comfortable, the house is airy and perfectly ventilated and quiet at night. The view over the Guanabara Bay and Sugar Loaf is breathtaking. Another great thing about the reservation is that it is also centrally located, just a short walk to the metro and buses and even a taxi stand at the end of the block. I would absolutely stay here again, and I highly recommend staying here to anyone looking for a great experience in Rio. Thank you Katia!
