Cristina’s place is amazing. If you are hesitating to stay here be reassured this is a great value for money. Born and raised in Rio I'm quite demanding when vacationing in the city and my experience at her place was outstanding.
The apartment in itself is great with lots of space and light, very well equipped with all you can need in terms of technology, kitchen appliances and utensils. Cristina makes all the small amenities like toilet paper, soap, toothpaste available and all from top brands.
And to make it all even more pleasant the apartment is 5min by walking from the beach, close to several markets and drugstores and next to several of the cities best restaurants.
Definitely an experience to recommend without hesitation.
