I stayed at Pedro's place for 2 weeks and it felt like my home away from home. The location is great of course because you can easily walk to either beach. I felt safe walking in the neighborhood by myself. The place was clean and had reliable wifi. Several supermarkets (Zona Sul) are within walking distance as well. The staff at the corner cafe next to the apartment building is unfriendly, but the one across the street is lively and friendly...
Most of all Pedro was always available to answer questions and was very helpful! Recommended :)
