Great location. Fabulous views. Be prepared that you have to walk up the hills to go anywhere. On the plus side it’s always downhill when heading back to the apartment!
A little noisy at night as the apartment is situated next to lots of bars and restaurants and the double glazing in the bedroom wasn’t quite as efficient as the front. However we were so tired from walking all day it didn’t really affect our sleep. Also there’s no AC. Not a problem in December but worth thinking about in the high season.
Keys were collected from an office just a couple of minutes fromTrindade metro station which is on the line from the airport. Very easy, if that’s the way you are arriving in the city. Not so much if you’ve driven in.
Note: no welcome pack. No tea or coffee supplied, but there are a couple of small supermarkets within a 5 minute walk and lots of cafés.
Had a couple of minor problems but the ‘host’ answered quickly.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
