Rosy is an excellent host. She responded promptly to any concerns and anticipated our needs. The apartment is spacious and bright, well equipped for a comfortable stay and located in a secure neighborhood. During carnaval, Lagoa can be difficult to get in and out of by car due to the number of one-way streets and medians, but you can EASILY walk to the metro station. The metro is even closer than the maps suggest. I would definitely rent an apartment from Rosy again.
