Apartment is beautifully decorated and is in an amazing location. Even though it’s near lots of nightlife you can’t hear it - you will hear the person upstairs but we were out most of the time so it didn’t bother us. We found it so easy to walk to lots of sights. Great restaurants, grocery stores, transportation, everything you need is close by. Joana & João are super quick to respond and clearly care you have a great stay.
There is a smell of sewage that comes and goes in the apartment - at times it can be strong. There is black mold above the shower/toilet area. They explained there was bad rain in December. The pillows are a bit lumpy but the bed is comfy. There’s a note explaining you need to turn off the hot water in the shower when soaping/shampooing as to not run out, which isn’t advertised. It’s also on the 3rd floor - so 4 flights of stairs. If coming with small bags - no big deal. With luggage, it’s a lot to bring up. Overall had a pretty good stay.
