This was the perfect stay for our trip. Joana and João really thought of everything to create a perfect stay. Things were clean and there was abundant information in their guidebook of what to do and see. We wanted to be in the heart of downtown and close to the nightlife, and that is what we got here. If you do not want that kind of stay, I’m not sure I can recommend being the noise can be a bit loud from the street if you’re trying to turn in early. Also, the stairs leading to the apartment are narrow and steep, so carrying luggage was a tad difficult but I imagine that is what is to be expected in most homes in this area. Altogether, our stay was perfect and I can recommend.
