Joana went above and beyond to accommodate us a bit early and made the check-in process extremely smooth and easy. The place is cozy and though it smelled a bit like sardines (I think because of the festivities from the holiday while we were staying there) and there was some construction next door (luckily only during the day), it didn't affect our experience and we still had a fantastic stay! Would definitely recommend--just be prepared for a good workout from the stairs!
