The location is good, safe and close to restaurants and bars. Our hosts, Catarina and Mama Catarina, were very accommodating and gave us some good restaurant tips. The apartment, which seems to be set up to cater to guests, did just that: fully equipped kitchen, clean and spacious bathroom, tourist information. The outdoor patio was also nice to eat breakfast in. The only mismatch was that the apartment was darker and more claustrophobic than it appears in the photos. The mattress wasn't that comfortable, either, but I think I'm spoiled in this regard. Overall I'm satisfied with my experience!
