Paulo was a great host and the apartment was perfect. Paulo was extremely flexible in accommodating my very short notice request and went above and beyond host duties to mitigate check-in/check-out. For example he ported my luggage to his apartment so that I could enjoy my last day in Rio without porting luggage. He even allowed me to shower at his apartment before going to airport and served a delicious wine and snack with a delightful conversation with him and his wife.
