The apartment is well located in the Sao Bento neighborhood that has a lot of modern-hipster type eateries. The terrace and garden are the stand out feature of the apartment. Nonetheless we did not enjoy our stay really as the beds were quite uncomfortable (incl the sheets) and we also had to deal with mosquitos and are bug types (that might have been bed bugs but we are not sure...) The kitchen in itself is well equipped but one can see that there has been lots of traffic in this apartment and a lot of the appliances feel old and somewhat worn out... Some folks might not be picky around these matters, if that is the case then this might be a really good place to stay for those.
