Joao & Dora's place is amazing! It's well-kept and incredibly clean. Feels like a good hotel.
I would recommend it especially for the traveler that does not expect a lot of socializing or guidance, but likes to have privacy and explore the city on their own. Any questions I had were quickly answered by Joao through text, replying often within 10 mins. Even when one of the other guests left some mess, Joao made sure it was cleaned up within an hour.
