Marcelo's room worked out perfectly for me. The description was spot-on. What I couldn't have known from the description is how kind a host Marcelo is. He's extremely friendly, knowledgeable about the area and generous with his time (he walked several blocks with me describing where various eateries and shops were etc). The location of his apartment is also very convenient to the subway and plenty of nice walking areas. Highly recommended - I would stay there again without hesitation.
