Eileen's apartment is wonderful, it's smack dab in the center of Jardim Botanico with Parque Lage and the Botanical Gardens a few blocks away. The neighborhood is safe and clean, with a ton of restaurants.

The apartment itself is large with 3 full bathrooms and 2 bedrooms. Our group loved the outdoor space, it made for perfect al fresco dining but we often ate out since there are so many great places to eat nearby. Eileen is very sweet and welcoming and we couldn't have asked for a nicer host. If we ever go back to Rio, we'd definitely stay with Eileen!
