Great location - only a couple of blocks from the nightlife area of Bairro Alto, but in a quiet area with little pedestrian or car traffic at night. Bairro Alto can get extremely noisy late at night.
The Bairro Alto cable cars are less than 5 minutes away. There are lots of stores and restaurants within a few minutes walking.
Apartment is in a 3 story historical building - one flight from the street. No elevator but stairs are easy. Apartment is full of original historical details, including exposed beams and very old flooring. Some areas of the apartment have been updated but some have not.
Bathrooms were clean and functional. We didn’t use the kitchen but everything seemed to work.
Tomas was a great host. He has an office in the building and is around most of the day.
We would definitely stay here again.
