I am renting this room on a long-term basis. This is a really great place, close to Glória Metro Station and to Flamengo Beach, which is great to practice sports. It is also close to Lapa (Rio's nightlife) and other touristic attractions.
The room is spacious, very confortable and with air conditionning. It is in a remodeled appartment of two rooms, fully equipped with new kitchen material, a living room, dinning room and bathroom. Outside there are two fruit trees (mango and starfruit) and it has a nice view of the Sugar Loaf, because it is located on a hill.
Guilherme and Juliano are great hosts, solving any problems immediatly, giving advice on the city and they even have some bikes for you to use.
I highly recommend this room!
