This place is very well situated. It is literally in the heart of the nightlife in Bairro Alto. If you are a light sleeper you should know that the street at night is busy so it is noisy--although the noise level didn't bother us at all. It is worth noting that there is no heating in the place. We stayed in November and found the room quite cold. We needed to have multiple layers of blankets at night to feel comfortable. This would be my main issue with the place. Otherwise, the place was clean and a very good deal!
