The apartment is in an excellent location, in a hip and trendy area filled with lots of small cafes, restaurants, an open market with many gourmet restaurants, all within walking distance. In the evenings it was a bit noisy, with cars passing by and the small bars open but it's a lively area, so you get use to it, not much of a problem. A perfect space for two people. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need. Perfect communication between the host. Mafalda offered to pick me up from the airport which was a nice touch and very convenient. She gave many good recommendations for the area and for particular places to visit based on what your are interested in seeing. Overall, I had a very comfortable stay in Mafalda & Rodrigo's apartment and would recommend highly for anyone to stay here.
