We decided to go to Brazil for our honeymoon and also so that we could go to the Rio Carnival. We stayed with Inia at her beautiful B&B (Arpoador Bed & Breakfast) for 6 nights in the main suite, which I can only describe as PERFECT. Everything about our stay was wonderful. Inia is so so sweet and will help... More

We stayed here in Feb 2011 and were not disappointed. This was our first few days in Rio and we realised when we came back later (to a hotel further uptown) just how lucky we were to have stayed here. The apartment is shared with the owners which may put some people off but Inia and her husband are very... More

We stayed four nights at Arpoador B&B and were wery well received from the beginning! We had a really cousy room in a big apartment (where Inia and her husband lives) with a big bathroom that was furnished like in a real home. Inia (and her husband) were a great host and gave good tips and helped us book trips... More

We were so glad we booked the Arpoador b&B - Ini made us feel that her home was our home. We were so comfortable and content there. It really made our stay in Rio all the more wonderful. Inia is a marvellous lady - she has led a very interesting life, and loves to share her experiences with you. From... More

Like some other travellers had written, I was also put into the "annex" apartment, across the main B&B. This is totally different from what you see in the website and definitely not worth the price. The point is that once you make the booking you are not informed about this difference. The apartment is quite depressing. I spent most of... More

I found this place on a whim and am so glad I did! Inia (who runs the B&B) is wonderful and does everything possible to make your stay perfect. First, the location is wonderful right between Copacabana and Ipanema. The place is secure and wonderfully clean. I was traveling with 3 other girls and it was like we had our... More

We stayed here for one night but wished we stayed for more. Inia is a great host and her accommodation is very reasonably priced compared to other places in Rio. We stayed in the master suite and it was huge with a comfortable bed, lots of pillows, cable TV, a fridge, loads of storage space. The bathroom was large with... More

I have stayed at Inia´s place three times already. Inia, her sister and Alexandra are all amazing people. They will do anything they can to make your stay as good as possible. Great breakfast, clean and beautiful rooms. And the best location just between Ipanema and Copacabana. It´s a winner! Looking forward to my next trip and stay at Inia´s... More

I stayed in the master suite across the street with my wife and sister in law. I almost didn't come because of the negative review by Bontaks. We stayed a few days at another bed and breakfast and I can tell you that Inia's was much cleaner and better overall. Although it is true about the house being partly shared... More
