Fantastic place to stay for a family or couple. Secure, comfortable, clean, and well-appointed apartment. Definitely worth the price. Kitchen was fully loaded for eating in. Easy walking distance to public transportation, restaurants, nightlife, and the major sights. The view from the terrace as FANTASTIC, catch it during sunrise for the best view.
Highly recommend a pickup from the airport, very comparable to a taxi fare and takes you right to the door. First time visitors might have difficulty finding it on their own.
The large market, mercado da ribeira, is a five minute walk down the hill and worth visiting.
Ana was a great host. Quick to reply to e-mail, and reached out to us often with suggestions or to see how things were going. Thanks Ana.
