The location of this apartment is the best. From a ladies’ point of view, it’s nearer the night life when you don’t want to walk too far in your heels. And in the daytime, we could still easily get to the Port houses across the river in Gaia. In general everything in the city is easy walking distance.
The apartment itself was very clean and had anything you could want for a long weekend base. There are a few stairs, but nothing anyone can’t handle (but I wouldn’t recommend to anyone with bad knees, etc). The bed was perhaps a little hard for us, but we didn’t have lack of sleep from it. True to other reviews you couldn’t hear any traffic noise when the windows are shut, so this didn’t disturb us. In November, it wasn’t warm enough to have them open anyway.
The host, Ricardo, was very good at communicating everything before our stay and when we got there he was very good with recommendations and directions from the apartment. Definitely ask him for anything you want to know.
We had a lovely time in the city and I would highly recommend this place for anyone.
