Joao's place was super great!! It is super comfy and modern. And very quiet!! We loved a welcome gift (thanks!) and all the tips that we've got. There is a parking which is super handy, as we had a car, but it is super close to a public transportation.
You can buy a day pass and go around the city and all attractions on buses, we did and it was way easier than driving around as it is all one way streets and if you miss your turn your have to go a long long way around.
