We had a nice stay in Alfred’s apartment. Located right next to the metro and close to the beach. The communication with his friend Marcos was perfect, we received detailed directions to get to the apartment including information about public transport etc. Marcos also welcomed us and showed the apartment to us. Also he gave us some really nice recommendations regarding restaurants. The apartment was very clean and well equipped. They had a baby bed for our little son prepared. An additional duvet for the master bedroom would have been nice but we did not ask for it. It worked fine with one anyways. During the weekend it’s noisy in the night due to passers-by and also the garbage disposal several times in the night makes noises but this is normal if you chose a location in the city. Regarding the soundproof yes you can hear the neighbors tv etc. but again it’s common for a house like this and was also bearable. If you’re are looking for a good located apartment we would recommend Alfred’s place.
