The neighborhood has a great similarity to ours in Brooklyn- very quiet, not to many tourist walking about, close to everything, Rato Subway Station is under 15minute walk, and far enough from buzzing night life in the Bairro Alto. Tomas' place is very clean, spacious, lets in lots of natural light, and with plenty of modern amenities to offer. Unfortunately Tomas our host was not available to greet us, but his associate who is also name Tomas was there to meet us and showed us the place. He suggested many places that we ended up visiting. We would definitely book this place again.
