I met Fátima only briefly but she was lovely. I did have the opportunity however to spend some time with her sons, and they both were super kind and helpful and went out of their way to make sure I felt comfortable and made myself at home. The apartment is right next to the Lapa station, from where you can get a train straight to (and from) the airport (it'll take half an hour at most to get there), and the place is also only a short (and lovely) walk from the centre of the city and many different tourist attractions. 10/10. Would definitely love to stay there again. Even the cats were lovely! Thanks!
