I stayed at ana's place -or should I say palace? For four nights and it was an amazing experience. I was supposed to stay with one friend and at the last minute another friend joined us. But Ana had no problem handling the situation. I was impressed to hear about how nice she was to my friend as he came earlier and had to get the keys the the apartment. The apartment was lovely and clean even photos don't do justice to how comfortable it is to stay there. The sleeping couch was huge and just in front of it was a big screen where we could watch series(yes even Netflix was available!). The location is great we couldn't ask for better. Right in the middle of the town and in one of the must see neighborhoods! Stations cafes restaurants grocery stores and even the famous bairro alto are at a walking distance. We had a funny situation where we tought there was no stove in the kitchen as we tried to make breakfast then dropped Ana a line (Ana answers so fast you can't beat that!) She told us to open that one drawer and everything was there! Every single thing you needed and more.
