I stayed at Ana Paula's place for 3 nights. The room is just as described. She lives in the apartment but the place is so big you may not run into her 🙂. Loved it! Her place is in a perfect location for sightseeing. Literally a few meters away from metro station and walkable to many areas of the city. You can't beat the location. Ana Paula was very helpful and provided tips and list for local restaurants. When there was an issue with metro line I was supposed to take she called and inquired if it would be running the next morning for me. Very much appreciated! You may want to bring earplugs with you as there was music coming from the bar below, if you are bothered by that. Highly recommend her place.
