Honestly, if you get a chance to stay here, don't hesitate because it's so special! The location of Ilana's house is very secure and the house itself is beautiful. The loft is on the third floor of the house yet feels completely separate. It has everything you need and was very clean and spacious. The views from the balcony were breathtaking; you see the mountains and christ the redeemer very clearly. You can even see the tram that takes you up the mountain to see CTR. At night, the view gets even better, which might be hard to imagine. In the morning, the sounds of the little birds and a lot of sunlight greet you. I had no trouble leaving or coming back, and there's a cute fluffy cat that loves to greet people. Ilana herself makes for great conversations, and I never felt uncomfortable. Highly recommend!
