Handy location and great host. The challenge we had was that the apartment faces the sun and gets very hot during the days. With no air conditioning we found it too hot and had to buy a fan to help us sleep. There were some power issues as well that meant we could not boil the jug to make a drink unless everything else was turned off, otherwise the power fuse would blow out. Sandrinha was a great host and did her best to help . . . but the power only got fixed the day before we left. Overall good value but be careful in summer unless you like it really hot in your apartment.
