Fernanda’s house is like a small hotel with a common kitchen at the bottom floor. There was a mixture of short staying guests and longterm staying students (architecture and marketing) when I was visiting. All I met were nice, social, tidy and friendly. The Austrian boyfriend of Fernanda, who is in New York, lives at the bottom floor with the couples old dog. He was nice too and gave me good advices on beaches etc. My room was super silent with a big garden outside. The interior style was fresh and simple. I would say a little impersonal but ok!
To get to the center you walk 10 min. Overall it was a very good place for a very good price.
