We stayed here for 6 weeks and loved it!
This place really works well for long stays, it has a very comfortable big bed and a nice pressured shower - 2 of my top priorities.
As all of the other reviews have said, the garden really is a little haven. The BBQ was a great addition, we got to cook some tasty picanha on it! It’s a beautiful quiet space and you’ll feel like you’re not in the middle of a capital city! A nice little escape.
It has all amenities for long stays like a washing machine and a place to hang your clothes to dry. I wasn’t sure if there would be an oven as I couldn’t see one from the photos on the listing but there was a portable one. Don’t be put off by that! It’s a powerful little oven!! We used it a lot. It really did feel like a home from home.
The neighbourhood was great too, nice and local with plenty of local supermarkets, pharmacies and old-school lunch restaurants. We used the fitness hut gym nearby which was cheap and 3 min walk away. Getting into the city centre is easy, super quick if you go by scooter or metro.
One more thing to note which I would find helpful - there were no problems with smoking anywhere near this Airbnb. Not inside or in the garden - this made us very happy!
Finally communication was excellent! They were always there if we had a query. We met Pedro (Michelle’s husband) and he was super friendly and helpful as we discussed our love for Brazil!
Thank you!
