All I can say is wow! Sparkling clean, tastefully decorated corner apartment with sky-high ceilings, modern kitchen, comfy rooms and an AMAZING view. The location is unbeatable, just walk about 2 blocks to Praça Do Comércio and surrounding streets with tons of cafes and restaurants. Walk 10 steps from the front door and you got a small market for immediate needs. You can access the balcony from the living room and the bedrooms (it wraps around the unit) and the views are gorgeous, river views (you can see the cruise ships) and towards the back: the building terraces and an old cathedral. I enjoyed having a cup of tea at night while looking at the river. You can see all the action from the balcony but when you close the doors you can't hear a thing (I think the doors are noise-proof). The cleaning crew left the wrong coffee pods and Lourenço personally delivered the correct ones as soon as I told him, that was nice. Other that that I appreciated that the air conditioner was cold (in this crazy summer) and that the hair drier was potent and worked really well... (most Airbnbs have very old hair driers that shut down after you use them for 1 minute...) The check in and check out were a breeze, all around excellent experience and will definitely be back.
