I enjoyed my stay at Frederico and Marcela's flat. They made me feel very welcome and even helped to organise a taxi to the airport, which was much appreciated. The flat was very clean and well furnished with regards to cooking and bathroom supplies. The beds were very big and comfortable as well, with 2 queen beds and a single bedroom. With regards to location, it was only a 15 minute walk or so from Lapa and a 2 minute walk from Parque de las Ruinas so was a very nice place to be. Santa Teresa itself is a really cool place to be with good restaurants and bars nearby.

I did expect the flat to have more of a view of Rio with it being a "loft". The flat is a ground floor flat on street level so that is something to be aware of. Other than that, an enjoyable stay, thank you Frederico and Marcela!
