Alda’s place is in the perfect location. It is a 5 minute walk to the train station, 5 minutes to the river and about 10 minutes to the downtown. Alda’s niece met us upon arrival and went through he to use everything and showed us where everything was. They gave us maps, recommendations to restaurants which were excellent as well as arranged a cab for our early morning departure to the airport. They also left us wine, coffee, fresh fruit, milk, butter, eggs, orange juice, waters and Coca Cola! After a long train ride and commute this was very much appreciated. The house is spotless and had everything we needed. The neighborhood felt very safe at all times and has restaurants, markets and coffee bars in the same block. There was plenty of room for myself, husband and two teens to sleep. Thank you so much Alda for such a welcome experience!
