Unfortunately, the water shut off during our stay so we checked out early. While Tiago did refund us for the nights we did not stay, it was already not great for us. If you’re looking for a charming Airbnb experience, keep looking. There are so many hosts that provide superior service and better attention to details.
Overall, this place is in a central location and is well appointed, with two AC units. As others have noted, it’s on the 4th floor with no lift and surrounded by hills so if that is your nightmare, this place is not for you. It is also directly across from a noisy hostel.
We booked this place 2 months before our visit and agree with the recent negative reviews: the check in process is terrible to have to coordinate with Tiago to get the keys from the cleaner (we coordinated a 3pm arrival, even texted an hour away that we were on track, only to be told upon arrival that it wasn’t ready), there is STILL a broken toilet seat even though I saw that in an older review, the amenities are limited (for a one week stay, there was no hand soap, two small rolls of toilet paper, and no bottled water). I do not recommend this Airbnb.
