Valeria's place was comfortable, spacious, and located about 10 - 15 minute walk from the city center and Bairro Alto! There were five of us and there was plenty of space. Our communication was great and she was quick to reply when I had any questions. The walk up to the house is a little steep, but it wasn't a problem for us. The view from the back porch is fantastic and there are lots of small markets around where you can grab breakfast food and etc! Also, here was a a washer / dryer and a stove we used to cook breakfast in the morning. I would definitely stay there again.
