Beautiful apartment, centrally located. We felt Joao (the host) was trying to hurry us out on the Monday we were checking out. His girlfriend who met us on check in had informed us that check out was at 12 noon. The night prior to check out, Joao had emailed us staying it was at 11am and over emphasized that we could leave earlier if we wished (I think he mentioned it twice). This was despite the fact that we had stated that we would have liked to have check out at 12 in line with the check out time his girlfriend had told us checking in. We actually didn’t feel the Host was that receptive to a last minute change to check in also. Although the check in time was stated as 3pm and our request was last minute, the Host wasn’t overly receptive to an earlier check in of 3pm rather than 7pm. His reasoning being that he had guests checking out. Which now doesn’t make sense as the check out time was 11am. This overly business approach of get them in and out took away from our experience of Joao’s place. Which despite this is centrally located and beautifully furnished. His girlfriend on check in however was lovely and informative.
