After having read the reviews of this house, we arrived there with very high expectations. We were a bit disappointed to find that the fridge wasn't stocked with basic essentials and drinks as promised and as it was mentioned in the reviews. As this is not something that is required from an AirBnB, it was not a big problem, only a disappointment.
The view of Christ the Redeemer was beautiful and we enjoyed opening the windows and letting in the forest air and the sound of the birds (I was very excited to see a toucan in one of the trees one morning!)
The house is comfortable and has everything you need if you plan to cook.
Santa Theresa is an interesting neighborhood and I am glad that we got to experience it after staying in Copacabana for the first half of our trip. It takes about 30 minutes by Uber to reach the beach from there. We had to request the Uber quite in advance as it took them a while to reach us in Santa Teresa (we had to wait about 10-15 minutes each time for the Uber to arrive).
All in all we had a good experience and it was great to be able to chill out on the patio after a long day exploring in town!
