Diana's hospitality and her listing were both amazing and highly recommended! The location is perfect and within walking distance to ipanema, Copacabana, and lagoa. There is a view from Dianas living room of copacabana beach. My gf and I felt safe in that area and around the building.

We selected this place because it appears immaculate and it really was! Everything smelled fresh and clean (towels, closet, etc). The bedroom is large with two large closets and the bathroom was equally nice and cleaned daily. It was a great feeling knowing that at the end of the day, you had a comfortable and again, clean, place to return to.

Diana is very welcoming and helped us with tourist information and even did a small load of laundry for us. She has a housekeeper, maria, who made sure that breakfast was waiting for us every morning before we left. It included bread, fruit, meat, cheese, cake, juice and coffee. And every evening when we returned she'd welcome us back with some form of dessert. I REALLY enjoyed her torta alema!

It is a calm and clean house, but traffic noise does exist in the early morning and throughout the day as it is centrally located. We loved staying here and would recommend it to anyone who would be a respectful guest in her home.
