What an awesome guest house/hostel Luiz runs. Not one complaint about anything. We came and went as we pleased, they made breakfast every morning with fresh fruits. Luiz is a genuine nice man. He was taking other guests on tours and out and about. I'll be coming back for the price!

Nice location close to Ipanema beach and Leblon beach. Everything worked well. Very clean and very safe. Perfect as a headquarter. Easy to get around by foot or by bus. Friendly owners. Can recommend!

Luiz's B & B is amazing. When travelling, I often prefer a family-run establishment not to feel like a tourist and this was no disappointment. The B & B is located in a traditional first floor flat in Leblon, Rio's most respectable and conservative neighbourhood. It's only a two-minute walk from the iconic Leblon beach, a similar distance to the... More

We stayed 5 nights at this bed & breakfast during our honeymoon in October and really had a great stay.

Furthermore, the breakfast is delicious with fresh juices and... More

Excellent location and a very friendly atmosphere, I would not hesitate to stay with Luiz again if I went back to Rio. Close to beach and several great restaurants and bars. Food was great and Luiz was very helpful.
