Location is within walking distance of trains and other public transportation. We ended up just walking to our tour's starting location downtown since it wasn't too far. Flat is functional but bed is old and a little uncomfortable. On our last day early in the morning - maybe 4:00 or 5:00 am - there was a lot of noise outside. It may have been trash collection day. I am typically a good sleeper and it was enough to wake me up.
Vasco is a very responsive host and went out of his way to help us.
