The apartment was fine. The problem was the host. She always wrote to me in Portuguese and complained I had communication issues when, all of a sudden and miraculously, after I left, she started writing in English to charge and blame me for any damage in the building brought upon her by any “neighbor”. No possible defense as my word meant nothing to her. One particular anecdote: when I couldn’t find the apartment (as the one appearing in Airbnb maps is wrong), she recommended me to take a taxi, of course in Portuguese.
