Lovely appartement in walking distance from the metrostation and supermarket. The neighborhood seemed a bit shady, but as you walked towards the city center this lessened. The appartement was nice and clean, but did have some room for improvement. The shower has an ecological system, so that the water stops running automatically after a period of time. Unfortunately, this system doesn't work properly, so you have to push and twist/hold the button while showering. As this is quite a struggle, the hot water would often run out before both of us were able to shower. Furthermore, there were hardly any facilities available to wash the dishes. Communication with Paulo was very good. We encountered a problem with the stove, but he responded accordingly and the problem was fixed that same day. Overall we had a good stay and, ones the shower gets fixed, I would definitely recommend this appartement.
