We stayed at his apartment for five weeks as we trained to dance and perform in Carnaval.
Rafael was absolutely remarkable to work with! He always respond to texts within five minutes on WhatApp and went above and beyond when the Internet temporary went down and the toaster broke. He fixed both within a couple of hours.
Rafael was even kind enough to offer and let us stay a little later when our flight was canceled and offer recommendations about what we could do with our bags.
He was a super host and I highly recommend anyone stay at his lovely apartment that is a five minute walk to the beach in Copa. We will definitely be coming back next time we are are in Rio.
