The apartment location is perfect. There are many nice restaurants in the neighborhood, and everything is within walking distance. You have a bakery next door, you can walk to Santa Catarina for shopping and visit all the major tourist attractions in minutes. In addition, the Metro stations (Trindade and Aliados) are close, with excellent connections to the airport, Gaia, and other places. Even though the apartment is located close to bars and restaurants, the bedroom is shielded from noise on the street, thanks to its location on the other side of the building. The host, Roy, is always available, and he is the "digital type." He always responds in minutes if you need assistance. He also gave me a very nice list of restaurant recommendations, which made the stay even better.
