We had a terrible experience. The doormans were really helpful but unfortunately we: had the power cut out due to the lack of payment of the electricity bills (we couldn't make use of all the amenities for a whole day because of the lack of electricity, we lost all the food on the fridge we had for seven people). Diogo's compensation for all the damage was 100 reais which weren't enough to really compensate for anything. The apartment was full of cockroaches both in the kitchen and inside the BEDS. The favela is really near making it dangerous during the night, we were waken up one day because of a gun shooting that took place in the favela. Even thought the apt looks nice and clean in the pictures it is actually old, dirty and it seems like nobody is really taking good care of it although it has a lot of potential. We definitely wouldn't stay there again.
