We loved our stay at this apartment. It was clean with comfortable beds and exactly as advertised. The location is unbeatable! We would definitely stay here again!
Property was clean, host was prompt, apartment was in a great location. Pictures were accurate. All was great!! Be aware that there are a lot of steps to reach the apartment. The host was a sweetie and carried my bag up!
Apartamento renovado. Muito confortável e acolhedor. A varanda é absolutamente maravilhosa: tradicional e muito agradável para estar a contemplar. Na rua tem imenso comércio. Restaurantes, supermercados, lavandaria, tudo ao virar da esquina. Tem uma pizzaria ao lado do edifício! Muito perto da estação ferroviária SMN, da catedral e da maioria das atrações turísticas mais conhecidas. Ótima comunicação com anfitrião.
Pontos menos positivos: o edifício é antigo. A entrada e as escadas de acesso ao apartamento mereciam ser renovadas. A primeira impressão é que se trata de uma rua insegura à noite mas sempre estávamos em casa depois das 22 h e não tivemos nenhum problema.
