Location was GREAT! This was the main positive point of our stay. Very close to the beach, live area, lots of grocery stores, restaurants, street food, etc. Rio is amazing!
Patricia is the one who meet us to give us and take back the keys and she was very responsive (as was Edson when we initially booked the place) and very nice.
Edson's place looks exactly like the pictures. The mattress was a little bit too soft for us and the kitchen small (we didn't cook during our stay there) but perfect for two people (in terms of appliances, dishes, cutlery).
Two negative points during our stay, is that there was a neighbour that was very loud one night and nobody seemed to be concerned... Also, there is an apartment at the end of the hallway that always had dozens cockroach that was hanging all over the door... And one night we saw one of those in our apartment .
