João was really a perfect host. We arrived little earlier then expected, yet we were able to store our luggage at the flat. The same with check-out: we needed to keep luggage until 8pm and there was no problem at all. The apartment itself has everything you need for a weekend city stroll. The restaurant next door which is owned by João is really nice. I highly recommend to try an octopus, cod with egg and an almond cake. They are delicious.
