Flavio was very outgoing, he was going above and beyond to make our stay in Rio as enjoyable as possible. He paid a lot of attention to the every single detail and did a lot more than we have even expected him to do for us. For example, he was preparing a breakfast every morning with fresh fruits and juice that wasn't even included in the original deal. The apartment is very well located, 5 minutes walking from the major metro station, in the heart of Rio's night life and in the proximity of all major tourist attractions. Evan though the place its self is very modest Flavio's hospitability made it cozy and pleasant. During our stay at Flavio's place, he was always there for us no mather what or when we needed something. His English is perfect which is a big plus because a huge majority of Rio doesn't speak any English at all. We would definitely recommend him.
