Casa Laurentina was our home for 2 months. Joana is a fantastic host and has been always very fast to respond to any need or question. The villa is fantastic and really it has everything needed (full kitchen equipment, bathroom amenities, etc) and it is very comfortable. The location is not in the touristic area, however it is in a calm district and it has access to public transport system including a metro station about 10-15 minutes walking distance. In our case we were not for holidays and it was a great fit for reaching many places (office, school, malls) and offered a private parking place. Airport is very close too, but we never had any noise issues inside and we could only sometimes hear the noises when in the garden.
