Sandra’s place is very centrally located near the Sao Bento station and the road up to the cathedral and Rua Das Flores, a pedestrian street full of life. The apartment is nicely decorated and has conveniences such as microwave and coffee maker. Shower is small but functional. Bed mattress is nice and firm, not saggy.
Our only issue with the place is that the street noise at night can be loud. We were there on a Friday night and this corner seems to be very lively with young folks celebrating the end of the week.
