Communication was amazing, really nice hosts and amazing location if you’re visiting for a weekend. I’d say it’s best suited for people that want the night life of Bairro Alto.
Amazingly there is no noise from the street, despite being on one of the busiest streets.
However, the flat can be incredibly loud due to the flat upstairs. I understand that there’s nothing the hosts can do about this as it’s just the building’s structure. But you can literally hear every single footstep/movement. Of course this depends on who’s staying above you, but most days this was a big problem for me. People returning from a night out at 5am or people waking up early and packing, dragging furniture, kids running around etc. For this reason I wouldn’t recommend it for a long stay.
If you’re a group on a short weekend and want to be in the hustle and bustle It should be a good fit!
