Joao was a great host! He met us at the apartment showed us around and how to use everything. He even supplied us with bottled water, fruit, bread, and milk. Joao gave us his contact info incase we had any problems or questions. We stayed for 3 weeks and he messaged at least once a week to make sure we were enjoying our stay and to remind us to let him know if we had any problems. The apartment was huge and a short walk to grocery store or cafes and right across the street from the metro.
