John went beyond what any host would do for a guest. He helped me early on in obtaining a visa to Brazil and his help and guidance in navigating all of Rio in a country where me and my family did not know the language was just awesome. Thank you thank you John for being a super host. Your location was excellent with the proximity to the beaches and the restaurants and sights and shopping. I can go on. Me and my family can't thank you enough for the wonderful stay we had at your place in Rio as well as the great time we had in a fantastic city like Rio. We will definitely come back !
