Gonzalo was a great host and very responsive to any queries we had. The checkin was seamless, very clear instructions to open the downstairs door and find the keys to the apartment.
We spent 1 month there, the apartment was spotless, beautiful space with a cleaner coming once a week and looking after the place. The living area is spacious and very comfortable, kitchen is a great size, we cooked there most days and was very convenient. Wifi was great, we were working from home and had no issues what so ever.
We didn't really need the aircon much but the 1-2 times we did need it worked fine both in the living room and the bedroom and the heating came on once or twice to warm up the place on a chilly night.
A lot of people mention the noise in the area. When booking a place right in the middle of Bairro Alto we knew what we were getting into, there's plenty of bars on the same street as the apartment building so the noise was at a pretty high level at night but neither of us had any issues sleeping.
Overall, great host, amazing well looked after apartment, great and vibrant location would definitely recommend
