Great experience overall. very well located near the Maracana stadium, which was my main destination this week. Me and a friend stayed for 2 nights and the layoutof the apartment gave us both a nice privacy, with a great hangout area in the middle. the location needs another praise for how great it was. so many great options of food all around, we ended up having most of our meals in the charming Tijuca neighborhood. Felt safe in the apartment and in the neighborhood, so I walked around a good amount these 2 days, but everytime I called an uber it wouldn't take more than 5 minutes. The best part of the stay however was the host. A great couple who went above and beyond, literally. I would have to write an essay to explain how they helped us, but it was definitely heartwarming to know there still great people out there. Thanks again for letting me stay in your apartment! until next time
