The location of the apartment is very central, just 5-10 minutes walk from the São Bento Train Station. It is an easy walk to just about every attraction. The apartment is large, well-furnished, and very quite. There is plenty of hot water and a fast wifi. The bed is comfortable for a couple of heights up to 180 cm (5 ft & 11 in.). The cleanliness is exceptional--so spotless that I would wish my own home to be this clean! The bedding, towels and shampoo, etc., are supplied and arranged in a very professional way.
When we arrived before the check-in time by the rules, the parents-in-laws of Marco, then cleaning after the previous guests, met us very welcomingly and did their best in speaking in English introducing the house, attractions, and good restaurants nearby. We put down our luggage, got the keys and went out eating lunch and site seeing. When we came back in 2 hours, the apartment was magically ready and in the spotless condition I mentioned above! The apartment, including all appliances such as the stove, heaters, clothing washing machine, etc., served us perfectly well. We had a wonderful stay.
