If it was possible I would give this 4.5 stars. The apartment is exactly like the photos. It is one of many Maria and Pedro (who we did not meet) own. It definitely has a more generic/sterile feeling than many other Airbnbs we have rented feeling more like a hotel room than a home. Which is not a bad thing necessarily - just something to know: One thing to note is that the amenities are also like that of a hotel - hotel sized shampoo and two coffee pods are all that are provided. So if you were planning to cook you would need to purchase everything. That said, the location is in the heart of the city - easy to walk to every neighborhood within 30 minutes and the hosts (we dealt with their friend João) were communicative and check in was simple and easy.
