Luiz is the most responsive host you could ask for. The place is very thoughtfully and beautifully decorated, and it's bright! The building feels safe and the staff in the lobby are kind (plus always a really cute cat in the lobby!). The apartment is quite high tech and comfortable. Luiz even sent tips about what to do/see over the weekend without me asking. I was grateful to have access to a laundry machine and a nice shower. Thanks Luiz for a lovely weekend stay in Rio!
