The apartment is very well conceived, bright and comfortable. There is a lift in the building which is a huge plus particularly when you travel with many luggage. The location is ideal, steps away from the Luiz I bridge and the cathedral. Unfortunately it is also a very busy area, with heavy traffic, and it can therefore get quite noisy. Aside from that our stay was delightful. We were welcomed by Maria who was very warm, energetic and a great resource for recommendations about where to go, eat, visit etc... Thank you Maria and ORM for everything!
