The best airbnb experience I've ever had! Rafael's parents made our trip in Rio seamless in every way. Their suggestions and tips and not to mention all their love and humour made this trip especially unique. During carnival this location was epic!! Every time we stepped out of the door we stepped into either a full blown carnival party or into a political carnival rally!!! Incredible! The breakfast kept us going and was extremely delicious. The room and bed and amenities were really comfortable we felt like family members. Very close to the metro, in between the beach and the lagoon. This is the spot to stay in Rio. Its extremely safe and secure for female travellers :) thank you
