Rita greeted us at the door right when we arrived. She was very helpful getting us settled in and took her time pointing out the places of interest on the map. The apartment is very charming and since we were traveling with a toddler, the play pen and high chair provided was one of the reasons we choose this place. Vera even had a little bin with books and toys that my daughter immediately fell in love with. The location of the apartment exceeded my expectations. There was a little market a few doors door, cafes and restaurants all in walking distance. We walked to various neighborhoods, even Barrio Alto was a very short walk up a staircase. The apartment is on the 5th floor but we didn't mind the stair since it provided a lovely view of the Sao Jorge castle.
