    Castelinho38

    Posted by theRealNoraBarnacle 7 May 2010

    Castelinho38 is a divinely appointed guest house in the safe, beautiful and lively neighborhood of Santa Teresa, in Rio. I stayed there as a solo female traveler and felt very confident walking from the Castelinho at night to all of the great nightspots along the neighbourhood's main artery, where you can hear wonderful live and informal samba, chorinho, and bossanova sessions. The owners and staff at Castelinho will take excellent care of you and see to your every need. There, you can grab a beer from the honour bar, sit back in a hammock, listen to the groovy sounds they have playing, and behold the gloriousness of Guanabara Bay, the intoxicating scents of all the surrounding flora, and the pleasant (and never overly loud) pulsating sounds of the best city on Earth!

    Casa 579 guesthouse

    Posted by theRealNoraBarnacle 24 February 2010

    I am female and travelling (solo) to Rio. Lots of searching and talking to folks in the know pointed me to Santa Teresa as a safe, lively, and less touristy place to stay. Look into the Casa 579 guesthouse online. That's where I'll be.
