Our stay with Luiz was wonderful. He's a super host and a truly kind person. We had endless talking during breakfast and in the evening about NY and Brazil culture.
The house is very clean and quiet and the guest room is on the top floor and has a private bathroom. The house location is perfect. You can easily reach Copacabana beach and the center and Lapa. He lent also two bikes which made our going to the beaches even easier and more enjoyable.
