Santa Teresa is a really pretty part of Rio with lots of bars and restaurants in walking distance. Many people told us it was not safe, but we had no trouble and weren't hassled at all.
This B&B is an old historic mansion with funky rooms and has monkeys and turtles roaming around the gardens. The owners were a really nice couple who made us feel right at home and gave us lots of us advice for places to check out.
