As much as we liked the location of this place, the owner responsiveness, and the easy check in process, we weren’t impressed with this place.
Ill start with the good things about this place:
* Location! Perfect quiet neighborhood, close to train station and restaurants. 25 min walk from the super touristy stuff but it’s great.
* Easy check in! Frederico made finding the place and check in process seamless.
* Spaciousness! We were a family of 4 and rooms were large enough to accomodate. Plus 2 bathrooms is rare!
Now on to why I wasn’t impressed:
* Cleanliness; while sheets, showers and couch were clean (that’s honestly the most important), the floors were God awful. Our feet were black and it made us look at more things: Stains on walls, the table cloth. We broke a glass water bottle and as we cleaned up, we were sweeping so much dirt. It was a little gross.
* Uncomfortable showers; water would go from freezing cold to scalding hot in a matter of every 30 seconds. Difficult to take a proper shower, impossible with my kids. Also kind of dangerous as it was scalding water. This was in both showers. Also no shampoo or soap provided. Not a big deal but fair warning.
* Unreliable Wi-Fi. We had no service on our cells if we didn’t have Wi-Fi; so it was apparent that we kept losing signal. It was slow and not dependable. Also there is no TV. We did not care but in case you do, the listing is not accurate.
All and all, it was an ok place and we were satisfied with location. I think if it was cleaner and they fixed the water temp problem, it would be much better.
