The hostess was really nice and welcoming, having prepared maps and little notes for us, where she showed us what places to go to and also giving us her own recommendations for restaurants and sights in the city. She also left us some nice port-wine as a little welcome to the city.

The apartment itself was exactly like described and seen in the pictures, if not even better. It was nicely furnished and decorated, and well equipped. The beds were comfortable, and there were also a fan ready to be used for hotter days. As for the noise from by-passing cars in the street that some have mentioned in earlier comments, it was nothing that bothered us.
The apartment was clean and well organised and you almost felt like you were staying in a nice hotel, but that had a personal touch.

As for the area, it was great. It was super central, with basically everything one could wish for within relative walking distance (restaurants, metro, harbour, supermarkets, sights, party district). The closest metro station also had a direct line to the airport, which also was very convenient and comfortable.

This is a great apartment in an amazing city, with a really nice hostess, that we sincerely recommend!
