I stayed with a friend at Valeria's for only 5 days, specially for NYE. Being from Rio but living abroad, I wanted to have some time for myself and "escape" from family. However, I did feel like home. It was just the perfect choice. Coming "home" late at night to a shelter from the city's amazing craziness and enjoying that tropical forest balcony view was definitely a highlight. The flat is super cozy and spacious. It was hard for me to leave. The prime location, the flat deco, the shelfs full of interesting books, that bedroom powerful ceiling fan (what I miss a lot) and last but not least, Valeria's hospitality. She is very friendly and very attentive to the host's needs. She always checked if I needed something. I absolutely recommend this place!
