I had an excellent stay at Marcos's place. First, the location was perfect, situated directly off the Cantagalo metro stop. It was also a few blocks from the beach and many restaurants, cafes, and shops are all within walking distance. The entire place was very warm and inviting, as well as clean and spacious, making my experience extremely comfortable. The bedroom was very comfortable and I really enjoyed the open view and fresh air. Everything was great. Both Marcos and Neto were very friendly, attentive to all my needs, and they even helped me learn a little bit of Portuguese. Overall, my experience was superb. I would definitely recommend staying here.
