A quirky spot in an great location
Pros:

What I liked most was the great location. The property had a wonderfully quirky, homely character and felt pleasantly quiet, with only a small number of guests around. I also appreciated that the owner responded to my complaints about the shared bathroom being dirty and the shower drain being clogged with long hair.

Cons:

The only issue on this occasion was the shared bathroom. I do not normally mind sharing a bathroom, but another guest left it very untidy and in quite a mess, so I decided not to shower on my first night. However, the owner came to clean it himself, as he’s cleaner was somehow not available and the situation was sorted by the following day. I appreciated that very much.

Pros:

La maison est agréable et joliment décorée, on s’y sent très bien. Et on a également adoré le quartier, très safe et animé. Il y a beaucoup de commerces, des restaurants et la plage de Ipanema est tout proche à pied. Merci encore à Ricardo pour son accueil! On reviendra sans hésiter.

Fantastisch!
Pros:

Bij aankomst voelde het gelijk als een comfortabel huis, leuke kamers, een keuken met genoeg faciliteiten en een badkamer met keurige faciliteiten. Het huis zelf voelt heel cozy en het is leuk ingericht met allemaal kunst. De locatie is ook echt top met heel veel restaurants en winkels in de buurt. Daarnaast is het strand van Ipanema ook op een paar minuten lopen. Wat wij het aller leukste vonden aan het verblijf was de eigenaar Ricardo, hij was ontzettend vriendelijk en gastvrij. Hij hielp ons met van alles en gaf ons ook goede tips over vervoer naar verschillende plekken. We waren zo tevreden met the Bike House dat we nog een week hebben bijgeboekt. Een echte aanrader!

Cons:

Er zijn veel muggen en het muggen net was kapot
