Luis’ place was very interesting and different. Overall average
Pros: Amazing large private patio with great views of Ipanema Beach and The Christ statue. Great location-Two blocks from the beach. Awesome view of the sunset from your bed
Cons: Kitchen is completely disconnected from the bedroom. If it is raining you would need to go outside and walk up stairs in the rain to go from kitchen to the bedroom and vice versa. The outdoor stairs are not stable and need to be repaired. Parts of the wood deck near the stairs and mini pool are rotted and need replaced. Pool has no filter system. Overall place was not clean throughout.
Different: To enter your place you must walk up a spiral narrow staircase immediately after opening the door. Therefore your luggage must be carried up those stairs. This may be a challenge for some guests.
