This is a perfect airbnb to experience Rio in. Located in Botafogo, which is a great (and pretty safe) neighborhood that is not very touristy, yet close to all the touristic spots. It's' by a metro (which could be faster to get to ipanema during rush hour FYI), a nice street Nelson Manela, with restaurants and bars, which makes it very livable. Pictures are accurate and the place is well kept. Hosts are communicative, pleasant, and easy to deal with. The only thing to keep in mind is that the couch is not suitable for sleeping. It is quite small and uncomfortable to sleep on (but fine for sitting).

Thanks Flora for the great experience. I will definitely stay again.
