I liked that there were restaurants near the apartment and very easy access to public transportation. There is also a market only about a 3 min walk from the apartment. The only issue I had was that the apartment was very dirty when I got there. The cleaning lady had not gotten there and I checked in 30 min after the check in time. The door knob also was broken from the individuals that stayed there before I did. Martim was very nice and helpful while checking in and giving my friend and I places to go and relax at.
