The location of the apartment was great – directly next to Bairro Alto, but the street itself was very quiet. You can reach all major places within short walking distance (coming from the airport we would nevertheless recommend taking a taxi, as the way from the metro is really steep and sometimes with stairs). On the opposite side of the house, there is a small supermarket were you can buy water, etc.
The apartment itself was very clean, well equipped and provided all amenities you need.
