If you are looking for a perfect room, with a perfect host in a perfect location this is the place for you. The location is just a few steps away from the metro and a few minutes away from the sea. It is very convinient as it is close to everything. The room is clean, with lots of air and light. The space has a small kitchen, with everything you may need. Fridge, electric burners, plates, cups etc. Two bathrooms for the three rooms in the apt. so there is never a wait.
Goncalo was a gracious host. He is very responsive and thoughtful and was in touch all through my visit to make sure all was ok and if I needed anything.
Two things to know: the room is on the second floor and the stairs are narrow. It wasn't an issue for me, but needs to be mentioned. Second thing is that it is a lively area with music from the restaurant downstairs and lots of bars around etc. However the windows in the room block the noise well if its bothersome. Personally I loved it the music and the liveliness of the neighborhod so I kept the windows open.
Recommeded!
