My daughter and I stayed here for a month and worked remotely during this time. The Wi-Fi was excellent and we never had a problem with the connection or speed. The apartment was very clean, modern, comfortable, and beautifully located. We were very happy with our choice.
As we were working, we preferred not to stay in busier parts of the city, but were only a short 13 minute walk to the river, a couple of minutes walk to Rua de Santa Catarina (Majestic Cafe, and shopping) and reasonably quick walks to several city sites. We were steps from a square that had excellent restaurants but the apartment was still quiet enough to work in the afternoons and evenings which was our working time.
There is market right next to the apartment, which is especially convenient for longer stays. Everything we needed was within walking distance.
The communication with the host was impeccable. She arranged excellent transfers for us from the airport to the apartment both for our arrival and departure. We would not hesitate to recommend Alvaro's place. Thank you for everything Silvia!
