We thoroughly recommend Jennifer's studio. Jennifer and Helcio were always very helpful and knowledgeable and more than happy to help with transfers, local info and suggestions. The studio is perfect for a couple: everything you might need and with an amazing view over Centro. It also has a very friendly cat! Santa Teresa is perfect for people looking to stay somewhere a little different than the beaches that has its own neighbourhood feel but still very close to everything. Opposite the studio is the Parque das Ruinas (one of Rio's best views) and, if you like to run, the Parque de Flamengo is a great place to run safely and with spectacular views only 6 quick minutes down the hill via Gloria. Overall, we have no hesitation in recommending this studio.
