Ricardo, the host, was amazing. Thoughtful and a great communicator. The local tips are worth the fee to stay there alone! The room had an excellent view over the city with the bridge and statue of Jesus to one side, and the hills and buildings to the other. The bed was very comfortable and sheets and towels were fresh and clean. The kitchen had an oven, gas hob and all the cutlery and crockery you will ever need. The shower was good too! Highly recommended.
