The check-in was flawlessly organised with the help of a neighbour. Inside there was really plenty of room for the two of us, however luckily neither of us was larger than 1.80m - people much bigger than that might have a problem with the very low ceiling and the super tiny bathroom. Kitchen, wifi, etc. - all there and problem-free.
What we also liked were the short ways to supermarket, bus and Bairro Alto. The variety of bars and restaurants is big and also cheaper than in the city centre. It might at times get a little loud outside if you have the bad luck of a drunken group passing by, but for us that seemed unavoidable and a non-issue.
We met Samuel on the last day only when we were too late with checking out. But again - no problem here either whatsoever. Samuel made a very nice impression and left again, so that we could pack our stuff without pressure.
