The flat was perfect for what we needed, great location with loads of bars and restaurants nearby right in the middle of the party scene :-) It was also very central so we were able to walk to a lot of places or if you prefer to catch the metro/tram/train they aren't very far from the flat. Joao was the perfect host. He phoned me not long after landing even though it was after midnight and was at our apartment when we arrived. He also checked on us during our stay to make sure we were ok. The flat itself is exactly like the pictures, very clean, well decorated with a perfect mix of old and new. You do get a little noise from the street but that is to be expected having great night life on your door step. The only negative is that the flat gets a bit warm and would benefit from AC but I think the price reflects this as it is a total bargain! I would definitely book this place again. Thanks Joao we had an amazing trip.
