Its a lovely little flat, with more or less everything you would need. Great location, very clean and easy to get to by metro, bus or tram. There's bakeries, a supermarket, and an abundance of other shops and restaurants close by. A short walk away is a mirradoro (viewpoint) which i went to every morning before starting my day. Paulo was a great host and even contacted me to advise that there was a metro strike scheduled for the day i was leaving - i was able to adjust my schedule and make my flight. Bairro Alto is a lively night time place (in nice way) and if you are sensitive to noise i'd suggest bringing some ear plugs. I'm a fairly light sleeper, but with ear plugs i slept very soundly. I wholeheartedly recommend Paulo's flat.
