The host that met us was Renata, Vasco's sister. She was extremely helpful and insightful with tips about the city snd places to visit!
The apartment itself was immaculate and all the amenities are most useful. The washer/dryer combo made laundry easy. The modern design throughout the unit is fantastic as it helps keep things clean and organized. Small amenities such as water, juice and cookies and earplugs will be waiting for you upon your arrival. Outside of all the small thoughtful amenities, I suggest using the storm shutters for privacy and darkness if you'd like to sleep in. The only downside was the intermittent noise of passing vehicles. Which isn't all too bad since the apartment is dead silent at night so background noise is welcomed if you need it. Overall, completely satisfied with the unit and highly suggest it since its not too far of a walk from most points of interest.
The cafe Madureira is open late, staff is very friendly to foreigners, and is a convenient bonus for being so close to the apartment if you'd like to order take away and eat in!
Good location for the price and overall fantastic experience!
