Fantastic location if you want to be close to the Bairro Alto nightlife, but still on a quiet street. Host was good about answering questions. They were nice enough to let us in a little early when our flight was early.
The only negative, as mentioned in some other reviews, is the odor in one of the bedrooms. I think it might be coming from a faulty air conditioner in that room.
Overall we had a great stay.
