As a FYI there are a lot of stairs you need to traverse to get to Tomas place as Taxi and Ubers are unable to get you closer to the street as it is blocked off for local traffic. Once you get to Tomas's place you will need to walk up 4 flights of stairs that are really tight and low at points (which can get tricky with large luggage).
Aside from the stairs... the location was within walk-able distance to many sights and is close by to many restaurants that feature Faro (traditional Portuguese singing)... we were able to hear it at night which was nice.
