The host Paulo is nice and provides good communication and directions as well as suggestions for restaurants.
Unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend the apartment… My girlfriend and I stayed there for 5 nights and the apartment really lacks interior.
The floor wasn’t cleaned at all when we arrived.
We only got a few towels which is not enough for that many days, also the duvet is just a plaid in a sheet which is way too cold in January.
The mattress is hard and you can feel the springs.
To warm up the room there is an electric radiator which constantly makes loud metallic noises..
The water in the shower gets ice cold after around 5 minutes.
The curtain falls down if you are not careful because the curtain rod is not properly attached to the wall.
Cooking is basically not an option because there is only space for one pan/pot.
You have to wash the dishes and cutlery by hand which is fair enough but there is no dishtowel to dry them after.
Worst of all - the walls are paper thin so you can hear everything. Our “neighbor” was talking in cellphone and we could clearly hear everything. - No privacy
