Absolutely loved my stay here. I was a bit nervous to travel to rio alone but carol and her family were so welcoming! Her mom waited up until 1 am for my arrival! The room is bigger than I expected and has amazing A/C. I worked 2 days and the internet was great! Sharing a bathroom can be tricky (I usually have my own place) but for this price, so worth it! I stayed a week and I would have stayed longer! The apartment is on the top floor, there’s an elevator, no stairs. During the day there was usually a doorman around. There’s a a corner store right by and It’s located in walking distance from impenima and Copacabana. I felt so at home here and I’d defiantly recommend it and would stay again.
