The hosts were really personable, informative, and extremely responsive. The apartment is in a good, non-touristy neighborhood and is nice, clean, close to a grocery store, and a great restaurant. It's about a 20 minute walk to most major Belem attractions. However, the building is very noisy. You can hear through the ceiling and neighboring walls. There are only a few people in the building, but you can hear every thud, door, cupboard, footsteps, things being moved, tasks being performed, etc. This made for a terrible sleeping experience the two nights we stayed. Despite being tired from our travels, using noise canceling apps on our phones, and earplugs, we were still kept awake. Especially between the hours of 10pm-3:30am, and then just often enough after that through the rest of the night to keep waking us up. It was our last stay before going home, and we were exhausted from no sleep heading to the airport. The hosts did try to resolve the middle of the night noise issues for us, but it went on even longer the 2nd night. If you are used to apartment living this would probably be a great stay, but it was too much noise for us. The hosts were amazing and definitely tried to remedy the issue.
