Alan and Catherine were excellent hosts with superb and exact communication throughout the whole process. We were greeted with a bottle of sparkling wine, local beer, fruits and some groceries. Our hosts made sure that we had everything we needed and every detail was covered and explained. They were very accommodating in our late check in (due to delayed flight) as well as late check out. They provided many recommendations which we found valuable indeed. Do take a note of places in Rio that Alan suggests. We very much liked our excursion to Santa Teresa as well as very bohemian confectionary/cafe in the Centro.
The apartment is in great location, right in the heart of Copacabana. It is located on a very cute tree lined street within 5 min walk to the world's most famous beach. Also, the metro station was just around the corner which we found very helpful since we used metro a lot to explore the city.
The apartment itself is very clean, bright and pleasant. Alan and Catherine did a great job decorating the place and making sure it has everything for the comfortable living. The space was functional with all modern amenities and comfortable bed. Also, the wifi connection was great and it helped us a lot during our stay in Rio.
Thank you Alan and Catherine for making our stay wonderful and memorable. We would definitely stay at your place again and recommend it to our friends!
