Joao was the best host we could have asked for in our first Airbnb booking. He was responsive, accommodating and helpful.
The apartment itself was perfect in every way - excellent location, fantastic kitchen, well cleaned, stylishly furnished just like in the photos - except for one thing. There was a bad odor that sometimes came and went, which Joao explained is common in this neighbourhood due to proximity to the river.
It may or may not bother other guests, but I personally found it hard to cope with. Maybe it was particularly bad that week. It's a pity because other than this one issue which cannot be fixed, I would love to book again!
