The location of Rodrigo's apartment couldn't be better--right across from the metro in Flamengo, which is a lovely neighborhood. Rodrigo is a very attentive and helpful host: he helped me with my computer when it wasn't working and when my phone was stolen. The bedroom I stayed in is nice and spacious. There were a few other people living in the apartment when I was there and the shared spaces could have been cleaned more frequently. The only other issue is that because Rodrigo smokes in the living room, it always smells very strongly of cigarettes.
