Luiz was a great host , always attentive to my comfort. He greeted me on my arrival, and helped me with loading and activating my European SIM card. The bed was comfortable and the shower worked very well. The apartment was very clean. Luiz provided an assortment of fruit which was useful for breakfast or as a snack. His apartment was well situated within walking distance to the major art museums, close to the metro , next door to food stores, near the train station, the botanical gardens and a major park.
