This a wonderful apartment, its so beautifully designed and is a very relaxing space to hang out it. Julia was so responsive to our messages and gave fab recommendations, especially Saranginha (pizza place) and Peaches (comfort food). It's in a great area which feels calm and safe, and you're only a 5 min walk from the subway. Would definitely recommend staying here, it's a calm oasis from the city with a lovely garden. As it's a basement apartment it's a little dark in the day but there's good lighting and the garden is bright and sunny. We had a great time staying there for a week - it felt like home!
