We were extremely satisfied with our host and our stay overall. She was available to answer any and all of our questions immediately and provided plenty of suggestions on things to do near by. Very attentive to us. The apartment was exactly as the description suggest and cozy. The neighborhood also met our expectations due to the perfect location centered near all attractions we were interested in visiting. I strongly recommend this apartment and suggest that if staying in Rio, definitely consider staying here. Surely would stay here again when we return to Rio..
