The apartment was a highlight for us during our 1 week stay. We loved the location (very close to the bridge, across the street from the cathedral and 2 min to Sao Bento station), the style of the apartment (it 's fully open space, you can go around the apartment from left to right so it offers a very freeing feeling. My husband loved that there was a guitar, and it was already tuned. We loved the check in & check out, as you receive a private code to enter and leave the apartment. There is a washing mashine+ dryer in the basement, which was a nice touch. The view is very nice, although there is a lot of noise from the street if you open them. If they stay close, it wasn't a problem, as the windows block the noise pretty good. If you have no plans for the evening, you can just watch netflix and enjoy a great sunset. Also, for those working from home, the internet connection is great, we had no problems.
Small things that could be improved: there are no hangers, more carefulness about cleaning the fridge & sink.
