Our stay in Copacabana and Rio wouldn’t have been the same if it weren’t for Renata! She is the BEST airbnb host I have ever met hands down! Despite her busy schedule, she went out of her way to meet up with us and give us helpful local tips and recommendations on where to eat and where to go. She responds very quickly and always sees that to it that we are doing okay on a daily basis. She has even helped us book a few tours while we were there! The location was also the best!!! We felt extremely safe and secure with it being a gated apartment and security was there 24/7 .. the best part about her apartment was that it was literally a few steps away from the beach with the best view in town. Her apartment was clean and had everything we needed. I travel a lot and always utilize Airbnbs and hostels for lodging and I have zero complaints with my stay here... it truly exceeded my expectations. Whether it’s your first time in Brazil or not, I highly recommend you stay with her. Thank you again Renata you have truly made an impact on our stay!
