Dora was easy to communicate with and check-in was smooth. The apartment is literally in the heart of the Bairro Alto nightlife epicenter. The streets got pretty loud in the nights and the nightlife here wasn't our thing, but with the windows and shades down we were able to sleep just fine. In general, the location is fantastic as it is walking distance to several restaurants and bars in the area and also other neighborhoods.

While nights are quite a scene, the mornings are quiet, albeit with empty beer bottles and cups strewn all over the streets.
