We were eight people staying here, that was perfect considering there are eight "real" beds and everyone got to sleep in a bedroom. The apartment is great and has everything you need. It's walking distanse to train, metro and busses. I can be noisy in the streets at night and since there is no AC, you have to keep the windows open, so bring earplugs (we also bought a little fan). I absolutely recommend staying here! We were picked up at the airport and brought right to the door, there we were met by a friend of João who showed us the apartment and told us things we needed to know. Great service all the way through!!
