Making a decision one should be aware of the fact that the room and bath are tiny. But as for me these issues are not of great value. Rio was the starting point of my travel to South America and the start appeared to be very lucky due mainly to my host and his mother who are really friendly, hospital and helpful people. Jorge spent a lot of time .guiding me around,explaining the basics of daily life in Brasilia, providing with practical information,arranging my transfers, etc. It was a pleasure to stay at his house. Now I believe I have a new friend in Rio and would be happy to be Jorge´s guest in case I´ll come to Rio again.
