We were enthusiastically greeted on time by Helena and introduced to the ins and outs of the apartment and the immediate area with care and courtesy and much welcome friendly conversation. The apartment itself is centrally located just a 5-7 minute walk from the central square adjacent to São Bento train terminal. The interior has recently been completed and is furnished and decorated to a modern aestheic with good taste and quality. It's very light and airy, with good means of blacking out the living area and bedroom if needed, and is simply a perfectly pleasant place to be. The bathroom, which isn't currently featured in the airbnb advert gallery, is equally pleasing and like the rest of the apartment was received perfectly clean and freshly prepared (no tub). My only gentle warning is to light sleepers, as the true bedroom is located toward the front of the building which is situated on a consistently active street (traffic), so if this affects you simply come prepared with plugs; our light sleeper was just fine using them. The bedroom has an accessible standing room balcony too. Recommeded!
