Very clean and inviting and in the middle of it all. The location is especially great if you want to be in center of it all and not have to walk up/down hills to get back to your apartment. As some have already mentioned, the climbing of the steep flight of stairs up to the third floor might not work for everyone. Would've been top-shelf if the mattresses had been more comfortable. Oh, and if you are taking an early morning flight and need to identify a location for a prescheduled car service (Welcome Pickups), I picked the nearby Hotel da Baixa and this worked well. (Taxis/cars can't go to area where apartment is located.)
