10/10 Excellent

Overall stay was worth the price and pretty safe. The location is ok but 15-20 minutes away from the popular beach area, however walking distance to Lapa nightlife and the steps. There are tons of places to eat nearby. If you want low key, this is the place to stay. Be aware of your surrounds at all times and you will be ok. I had a great time in Rio and will return soon.
