Apartment had very good location in historical part of Rio in Santa Teresa. We felt there safty and close to bars, restaurants and colonial architecture. We liked experience to live in this mini boutique hotel. Everybody had there own room with bedroom, bathroom, Mini kitchen and mini living room. And public space ( large living room and kitchen ), were we met new friends from different continents . It was very interesting experience. Our Brazilian neighbors learned us local cuisine and Portuguese language. Our host Anna was very friendly, helpful and kind. She recommend us several delicious restaurants and interesting places to visit. In apartment we found all we need: shampoo, hair condition, filtered water, oil, intresting books about architecture and photography. Anna told us interesting stories about Brazilian life. I think, it is a best place to live in Rio.
