We really enjoyed our time at Joana s place. There were 5 of us and there was plenty of space. The best gelato (gelato mu) is down the street, fresh squeezed orange juice and pastries next door, and the botanical gardens is across the street (closed for renovation but saving it for next time). The apartment is bright and breezy, there is traffic and normal people noise but you are right in the centre of it all, we had no problem sleeping at night, we were so exhausted from our days walking! I would definitely recommend this place.
