Joao was a brilliant host, he was very responisve to all our messages and gave us some great reommendations. We got to the apartment a bit before he did so we got a beer from the bar next door, Joao joined us for a drink once he arrived so we didn't have to rush and then bought our beers!
The apartment was better than advertised. It's really spacious and the balcony is bigger and better than it looks in the photo's.
It couldn't be better located in the h art of Barrio Alto next to some great bars and restaurants and easy to get to anywhere around town. It is on a very busy street, particularly at night, but it is on the fourth floor and faces out on to the side which doesn't have bars so we couldn't actually hear any noise at night.
Aircon works well which is always a bonus in a hot city.
Highly recommend!
