Ricardo and Kinji were excellent hosts. Kinji was waiting for us when we arrived and gave a very thorough tour of the place and made us feel immediately comfortable. He also picked us up and took us to the airport at 4:30am! Our stay in the ''Great View Room'' was lovely, comfortable, and, indeed, had a great view. The staircase to the loft in the room is a little wobbly and requires extra attention when using, but nonetheless, the stay and experience was great. The location is unbelievably close to the main Bairro Alto area and lots of great restaurants and shops.
