We stayed here for 3 nights. The apartment is big and nice. We were welcomed by Joao, who is very welcoming, and also gave us useful advice about how to hang around the city and what to visit. I really recommend it! The house is not exactly in the city centre, but it is very easy to reach it by bus (the service is efficient), and the walk to Barrio alto for instance is not too long (less than 30 min) and nice.
