I had a fantastic stay in Luis's place. I was looking for somewhere to base myself whilst sightseeing and working remotely.
It was a very reasonable rate during February. I stayed on my own for two weeks and my dad also came for a few of those days. It was good size for two of us and would fit four but might be squeeze.
The apartment itself was well equipped and with pleaant decor. Ivo Felipe was there to meet us and help us with anything we needed.
The best thing about it was that it was a quiet suburban location with excellent transport links. We got the metro from the airport to Carolina Michaelis, which was cheap and easy, but a 10 minute walk uphill with our bags. We then discovered that there was bus from right on our doorstep (Cruz Vermelha) directly to the airport, which was also a Z4 ticket but even easier. I also took buses into the city, to Mar Shopping and to the beach (Molhe) on a Z2 ticket.
I enjoyed it so much that I have already booked again for next year.
