Great place in a fantastic location. It is very close to the Sao Bento train station for day trips and conveniently located for visiting the tourist sites. We walked everywhere. There is a wonderful bakery called Tupi nearby for breakfast. The Mercado was also great for fresh fruit. The apartment itself is very clean and bright. It was nice not to be confined in a hotel room. Unfortunately we would leave very early in the morning and get back just to crash so never got to relax and fully enjoy it. Wish we had more time. Hosts were very good at communicating and responding. We locked ourselves out one day and someone came with the keys in 10 minutes, enabling us to make our tour. Great all around stay.
