João is a great, communicative host that's always available if/when needed.
The apartment itself feels brand new & has every utility you need for cooking/cleaning/etc.
The area is central & within walking distance from the train/metro, restaurants, clubs, pubs & shops.
Since the place is so close to the nightlife venues expect noisy nights, but, if you close the windows it cancels out most of the noise. The 2 bedrooms in the back of the flat are far enough so you don't hear any of it.
We were very happy with the experience we've had overall.
