The flat is in a great location, we loved Gavea as it's proper Rio but still close to most places, especially Leblon and its great beaches and bars etc. The bed is massive and really comfy and you have everything you need there in the house. The balcony is really nice, as is the jungle behind it! Sylvia was great and was always in touch, our flight got cancelled and we arrived really late at night and she arranged to have the security guard sort everything out for us and even left us some water, drinks and beer there! Much needed! Thanks for everything! Definitely stay here and get to know The true Rio, taxis are cheap and there's a rank 2 mins down the road!
