Carlos was really nice and flexible from the beginning. We arrived pretty late but he had no problem in greeting us at midnight. The location is aprx 15 min walking from the center. You have everything you need around supermarket, cafes, restaurants(amazing cheap eats as you are not in the complete center) Try the Migalhas around the corner if you have time its great quality for the price(local food) The apartment has everything you need for a couple or family of 3. Kitchen is well equipped, you bathroom amenitirs and towels also.
