    My son lived there for seven years. It was very well received by everyone. The place is very well looked after by the owner and his wife. I recommend it 100%. If your child comes to study in Curitiba, this is the best place to leave them. You can check.

    This was the worst place that I could have chose to stay for my five months in Brazil. The rent was super expensive for an individual room that was falling to shambles. A almost whopping $400.00 dollars for a shower head that only let out boiling water and was excruciating to take a shower, three light fixtures that flickered throughout my entire five months, a mini refrigerator that leaked uncontrollably and wet my shoes, a television that was so old and had no cable shows, mold all over the walls that cost me three hospital visits and I ended up developing asthma, breakfast that I found live ants coming out of the chocolate cake and green moldy bread. The owner of the flat, Cassio was an extremely rude man and had no sympathy whatsoever. DON'T SIGN HIS CONTRACT, its not worth it, find another place, this was the worst service of my life and above all that I I left one month before the contract ended and he sent his daughter to bombard my fb stating that she had called the federal police and that I was going to jail and other two random girls that I had never talked to, to make my life miserable. He makes you pay completely in cash which is already sketchy enough and doesn't allow you to pay by day if you'd like to leave earlier. I only needed to stay three days in December and he wanted $400 dollars which in the end he got otherwise his minions wouldn't leave me alone. I could have had a much more pleasant stay in Brazil and a better impression of the country if it wasn't for them but now I recommend my friends to go to other countries instead. The service terrible, the people cold and rude and the landmarks dull and uninteresting. If you are truly set on coming to Brazil I recommend the Casa Brasileira which has professional service in Curitiba, however this mediocre rip off with landlords that only care for money and not the well being of their clients is definitely the last one that would put on my list. I wish there was someone that would have told me BEWARE!!! They do anything to rip you off, the daughter which supposedly was a lawyer was asking me to deposit money is her brother in laws account in a different country and harassed me that she was coming to my state to find me. These people are so desperate, unprofessional and simply money hungry. I HIGHLY recommend you not look into this flat because it was just terrible. I talked to other students in the flat to listen to their opinion and of all the ones I talked to they felt the same way. An American, Mexican, French, Brazilian and Colombian all had the same terrible impression of the flat. I recommend you actually go see the place for yourself before making a commitment and signing a paper you cannot change. Cassio would go get all of the people that know them to just put 5 stars on the review so that they don't look bad and not write anything. To years later and this has still been the worst place I have stayed at. Being threatened by their daughter on Fb and on all social media that they called the Federal police on me and that they would detain my passport. Having to go to the federal police office like an hour away just for them to tell me that these people lied and were just wanting to get money out of me. Beware of places that are too expensive and shady, I learned my lesson, only going to contracted places and not by random individuals advertising themselves. I paid for every day that I stayed at that flat and I am sorry but there are people that want to charge crazy prices. My next door neighbor paid in euros more than what the man charged in reais and made me pay in dollars more than the Brazilians. I would pay $400 if the service was worth it but just because I was a foreigner they charge you more and the quality of the place is terrible. If you don't believe me please go take a look for yourself. I am just warning others that are coming from other countries that there are people like this man that just scam others because we aren't Brazilian. I reported this place to the university that I went to so they are aware of everything.

    (Translated by Google) Great place I lived three years there and have only praise. Cleaning is frequent, wonderful breakfast, always friendly owners. Strangely, the review of such Airton, met him, strange fellow, paranoid, remember well that this young man who left fled the scene not to pay and still come here defame this establishment. I believe the best propritários should filter the clientâ, since it is a reference establishment. (Original) Excelente local, morei 3 anos lá e só tenho elogios. Limpeza é frequente, café da manhã maravilhoso, proprietários sempre simpáticos. Estranhei o comentário do tal Airton, conheci ele, sujeito estranho, paranóico, lembro bem que esse rapaz que saiu fugido do local para não pagar e ainda vem aqui difamar este estabelecimento. Creio que os propritários deviam filtrar melhor a clienta, visto que é um estabelecimento de referência.

    I lived in the flat for 5 years and I only have good things to say. The owners always welcomed me as if I were their daughter and I always received very good treatment. The accommodations are great, the rooms, bathrooms and other rooms are cleaned daily. When I lived, breakfast and lunch were served, in addition to having a kitchen so we could prepare dinner. The staff is always very friendly and there is a 24-hour doorman. I had a very good experience during the time I lived there and I recommend it to everyone!

    I lived there for 4 months and what I saw: 1. The internet does not work fully. Both cable and Wi-Fi fluctuate all day and it's very common to go days without it. The administration denies the fact, but in the condominium group several tenants had the same complaint. 2. Cleaning the rooms is limited to mopping the floor, removing the trash and washing the clothes. The bathroom is not clean, creating slime (although the administration says it is). Tenant needs to clean up on their own. 3. Clothes are only washed on Mondays (they do not wash other days, even if requested). Clothing takes 3 to 7 days to be returned. 4. I asked them to take my gate control for maintenance (as the battery swelled) and instead, they replaced the battery with an old one. When I questioned it, they exchanged my control for an old model and didn't give me back what I bought (even though it worked perfectly - a fact reported by the employee who was in possession of it). 5. I got the room without new paint and without being cleaned, (including shoe marks on the wall), but when I left they charged me fees for this. 6. When I asked the management regarding the regulations, I received the answer: "you go and look at the cafeteria door, your contract is too short for so many obstacles". Anyway, I don't recommend it to anyone. The service provided there can be found anywhere in the center at half the price. Edit: For those thinking about living in flats, consider what is worth taking into account: the word of the tenants or the owners? The establishment's rating speaks for itself.

    Perfect place. Very cheap for the benefits, if you look for great breakfest, clean rooms, laundry service, highspeed internet, security and a great location in Curitiba. this is the place. The best room cust just U$360 at month. unbelievable!!! Please dont believe in lies. Go to the place and look for yourselfe. If you think U$12 at day for a complete service is expensive, probably you live in 1823. I dont know other place in world with same location, great service, friendly treatment and tasty food with this price. Visit the website, look the benefits, look the real price and make your decision. Dont believe in liars and her friends. I known the owners, they are nice and friendly people. Go to the place or call and talk with owners. You will known the reality. I talk with the owner Cassio, i understand him. if someone getout of your hotel without paying the last month... i ask: who is really rude person?

    I loved! You feel a family atmosphere. Despite being distant from the family you feel at home! The service and food are very good! And it has spaces to share with other people and make good friends! I was there for almost 6 months (that was the length of my stay in Curitiba). Thank God I got straight to that place!! And I hope to return soon!

    The best flat for students in Curitiba. I lived there for 2 years... super welcoming environment, ideal for those who are studying or attending college and are arriving in the city. Simple, complete room, cleaned every day. Washed clothes. Your concern is just one: studying. The owners are very kind and willing to help you. I made great friends there. The location and cleanliness are the big positive points.

    I studied at PUCPR for my sophmore year of college, along with my best friend, and we were roommates at the flat for a semester abroad. I had such a great experience while I was at the flat, and made so many great life-long friends! I never experienced any issues during my stay, and felt that the owners maintained a great relationship with all of us staying at the flat. They served as our parents and their kids were like our family. They respected our independence, but still kept a watchful eye since the majority of us were all young and impressionable foreigners. I would definitely recommend the flat to any students looking for living accommodations while studying in Curitiba!

    Great place to stay if you are starting your academic life, make new friends and get to know different cultures. It is right in the center, close to shopping malls and easy access to transport to colleges. It was my first and only place I chose to live, the people are welcoming, always concerned about your well-being. I'm grateful and happy to have lived there.
