Jose and Samantha are great hosts! They have created a stylish home-away-from-home that's close to many attractions, shops and public transportation. The studio is located on the ground floor of the building which is right next to a busy road and 24hr vending shop. Even though we are light sleepers we didn't wake up which is a plus. Even if it gets noisy, there are earplugs provided should you wish to use them.
We used the self-check in option as we arrived late at night, but we got to meet Samantha in person. She shared her local expertise on where to go, what to see and which restaurants are the best for seafood, sushi, Portuguese food, etc. It's always good to get recommendations from locals.
There are a small shampoo and shower gel provided, so if you are planning to stay more than one day make sure you buy or bring toiletries with you. Overall, it was a great experience!
