I stayed in Pedro’s place for 8 nights in February 2020. It was solo travel. The apartment is on the second floor. About 5 mins walk to Pingo Doce ( grocery stores) and 10 mins walk to the main historical areas which are quite convenience. Many cafes and restaurants nearby, also Lapa metro station is 12 minutes walk which can easily get to/from the airport.  The place has everything you’ll need including kitchen supplies, shower, hairdryer, etc. I love the high ceiling and beautiful windows. It is on a one-way street, so not too noisy. Hot water was super hot. Has an A/C though I didn’t try the cold function. Pedro helps out and answers questions quickly if needed any help etc. Most of the stuff is self-explanatory I had a great stay and it was perfect for what I need.   Highly recommended!
