From the International Airport (Galeão):
Take the bus from the company 'Real' that goes to Copacabana (it is 6 reais) and ask the driver (or the money collector) to leave you in front of the Shopping Rio Sul Mall (just before the tunnel to Copacabana) ... then you take the street on the right (Gen. Góes Monteiro) and afterwards another right (Rua da Passagem) ... go ahead, the third street on the left is Rua São Manuel ...
RESUMING: right, right, third on the left ...
From the Domestic Airport (Santos-Dumont):
Take any bus (2 reais) that goes by the aterro do Flamengo: 474, 126, 127, etc ... and get down at the same spot that i have just described (meaning: in front of the Shopping Rio Sul Mall)
From Bus Station (Rodoviária):
That one is even easier: just take the bus number 2011 on the exit and ask the bus driver to leave you at 'primeiro ponto da Rua da Passagem' (first stop at Rua da Passagem St.) ... then you just have to get back 1 block and you will find the Rua São Manuel ...
