Gustavo's apartment is in the most perfect location. You're 2 blocks from the beach and a few blocks from some of the best restaurants in Rio. The building is a bit on the older side, but the apartment is decked out and has everything you need - including ACs in every room and good wifi.

Gustavo was very accommodating - he sent me a welcome email with good info to know about Rio, then welcomed us in the apartment, gave us lots of tips on what to do (sunset at Pão de Açucar is a must) and even put us in contact with a travel agency to help us answer a few more questions.

Great experience and I'd definitely stay there again if back in Rio.
