We had a great stay at Marcelos plays for the last 2 weeks and who
Ever is reading this and is still hesitant to book, should just go ahead an See for themselves what we mean.
Not only with the host himself, but together with the whole apartment, we sadly had to confess, that Marcelo was BY FAR our best experience and we are really grateful to him, to have hosted us:
APARTMENT :
-clean (when we left, a cleaning team of 2 people showed up, taking their time to literally clean.. not just arrange)
-bright
-French style/vibe
-mixture like being at home and staying at a hotel
-enough possibility for private space in case you are more than one person booking this apartment
PRICE :
-you probably won’t find any cheaper apartment with all other things in match
WORKSPACE :
-definitely provided
NEIGHBORS/ NEIGHBORHOOD :
-We didn’t had any problems.. but if you have problems sleeping at night, you might find the neighborhood kind of “noisy”, since there is always someone playing music in the next street corner or I don’t know.
But on the other hand… that’s Brazil. Welcome! :) I think anyone will get used to it
-you will hear different animals, depending on what time you go to bed oder get awake. (For example a rooster from a far, different types of birds singing, streetcars talking to each other, sometimes dogs yelling.. just to mention a few) we had a funny time listening to all of them
-street is suitable for jogging companions ;)
-all in all you do have a beautiful view of Brazil and have everything nearby, while feeling very secure :)
HOST :
-we had very intresting conversations
-speaks more languages than Portuguese
-very open minded without prejudices (something VERY refreshing nowadays)
-kind of funny
-seems like a very honest guy
-unlike other host I have met, he really gave us the feeling of feeling free to ask him stuff. He did not give me the feeling that I would “disturb” him.
Hence, I’m very happy to finally have made a very very good experience at Air BNB thanks to Marcelo and we wish him ALL the best. Hope to be able to visit your garden one day with Coincidence.
And sorry for the long text. 🌸
