Ronaldo was wonderful to Lindsey and me! We stayed with him and his sweet girlfriend, Mariana, for almost 2 weeks and it was one of our best decisions. They were so helpful and gave us great recommendations. We went during Carnaval and they really went out of their way to keep us in the loop of all the festivities. Their place is located in a great area, Botafogo, and is close to many buses and the metro station. I would love to come back and stay at Ronaldo's place next time in Rio!
