It has been a pleasure to stay with Elisa and Marcelo. The room is clean and I get my own bathroom. The apartment has 24 hr security and is located near Flamengo metro, about 12 mins walk away. If taking taxi, the address at Pria de Botafogo may be misleading as it is nearer Flamengo than Botafago. Elisa even provided metro card, maps and info of Rio which were very useful. Highly recommended!
