In the heart of Bairro Alto, it is a convenient walking distance to the major sights. Host took a lot of time to go over a map of the area and offer suggestions. Apartment was clean, but living area only could seat two adults. In general, it felt very cramped for a 3 bedroom apartment. The noise level every single night (we stayed 9 nights) from the dozens of bars right below the apartment was really loud, and people would regularly stay out in the street until 4AM to party.
