This flat is beautiful and in a great location, within walking distance to almost everything you could want to see and also easy to access public transit from. As many other reviews have stated, there are many stairs. The flat itself is on the 4th floor (79 stairs up in the building) and in order to get to the building you enter a private gate from either a higher gate or a lower gate! Both of these gates have 50-70 stairs to get to the building where the flat is located. The courtyard these stairs are in is absolutely beautiful and, if stairs don’t bother you, it’s a dream to walk through. The flat is located close to a restaurant and on the weekends, we were able to hear people enjoying their time together until 3 in the morning, but only when the windows were open. With the windows shut, we did not hear the outside noises.
This flat is perfect for persons who don’t mind stairs and who are quiet otherwise, as the residence of the building are quiet people who try to be respectful of one another, especially when it comes to noise.
Paulo was very easy to correspond with and we enjoyed the time we were able to spend in this beautiful place.
