Our stay with Elaine was very pleasant. The apartment is very clean and the room is comfortable. Furthermore it is very well located: in the middle of Bairro Alto and this is really good for the numbers of restaurants and pubs. Obvioulsy this means that you hear noise from the street at night, but this is the price to pay to be in the middle of the night life: for us it was not a problem! We really enjoied the place. Elaine is very helpful, kind and extremely friendly. She also provided us a ventilator in case we would have been hot. I can only recommend staying at her apartment.
