We had a lovely stay in Carolina’s apartment, the location was absolutely spot on as it was a 10 minute walk to bairro alto and the waterfront but was a really quiet area, we never had any problems with noise outside. The apartment was perfect, facilities were great it had everything we needed and the kitchen was great for the nights we had dinner in. The highlight of the apartment has to be the terrace (despite the v steep stairs up to it, be mindful of this) - we loved having breakfast up there in the mornings and drinks in the evening, having outdoor space made our trip.
Thank you Carolina for having us stay, we left some recommendations for restaurants in the guidebook for future guests :)
