Euler went above and beyond of what I would expect from a host. He offered help and advice in every aspect of our visit to Rio. Staring even before our trip, I shared that we are planing to see the Carnaval, he got tickets for us at much better price than we found online! Arranged bus to and from sambadrom! Recommended restaurants in the area, was available via WhatsApp anytime I contacted him and answered any question I had! He became our reference person throughout the entire stay!!! We got so lucky that we had him as our host.
I was also pleased with the location of the apartment, 5 short blocks away from ipanema beach, 10 min walk through very happening Farma de Amaedo street, multiple restaurants, friendly, safe area. Building is just around the corner from that street on a nice quiet block. Taxi stand next block. Few blocks away is famous Garata de Ipanema restaurant, and Satiricon, probably best fish restaurant in Rio, H.Stern factory and store, a lot of nice shopping in the area.
The apartment itself is very nice, clean, modern furniture, 3 bedrooms, our mattress was very comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed. My absolute favorite is balcony, big, shaded, with mountains in the view. We had breakfast there every morning, paradise!
All in all it was great experience, I already recommended it to my friends planning to visit Rio.
Thank you Euler, hope to visit you again!
