I stayed for a week and Luís's place was everything I had hoped - it's great for a long stay. There's a laundry really close by and the apartment has a dishwasher and air-conditioning. I wish I could have stayed for another week. It's really central, but the windows are brand new and block out the sound if you want to - but when they're open the sounds of the city are great too. Lucky I found the place.
