We had a wonderful stay at Serginho’s place. The photos don’t do it justice, it was way bette than what we expected and the location was incredible! There were, however, a few things that I wasn’t too happy with. We arrived at night and our host hadn’t told the doorman that we were coming, so we were made to wait out on the street with all our bags until we could get in contact with Serginho and he could inform the doorman that we were allowed in. Secondly, the flat hasn’t been incredibly well maintained and door handles and door knobs fell off appliances Willy nilly. Finally, and the biggest thing, using photographic evidence from previous guests he’d had, Serginho tried to fine us over R$1200 (£200+), which felt a bit like a scam. Other than that it was indeed a great stay and it’s a shame that it finished with a hint of a bitter taste in my mouth. Overall I would recommend Serginho as a host and his properties to stay in.
