The property manager was very accommodating. The apartment was as described and clean. The neighborhood is very busy and noisy at night. With no air conditioning we had to leave the windows opened and the noisy neighborhood made it difficult to sleep. Otherwise, everything was as expected.

This is a beautiful, spacious apartment! It was very comfortable for 2 couples. The apartment is not as well supplied as some VRBOs (for example, we had to buy our own paper towels, dish soap, and additional toilet paper as there wasn't enough for a whole week) but it wasn't too burdensome since there is a convenience store right across the street.We were there in May so the temperatures were still nice, with cooling off at night. I think it might be hot in summer unless there is AC we didn't notice. We kept the windows open at night to be cool enough.....which is a trade-off because it is sometimes kind of loud outside on the street (mostly cars speeding by on the busier cross street but also people). The blackout shades that can be pulled down on the outside are very helpful to block out light and sound, but you have to keep them a bit cracked open if you want to let air in through an open window. Still, we generally slept fine and in principle we loved how those shades work. The unit is one block from the Anjos metro station, on the green line. This was just a few stops away from the tourist areas of greatest interest making it very easy to get around. There's a lovely bakery a block away and numerous good restaurants in walking distance. (We particularly enjoyed El Senor, a Mexican restaurant right around the corner that had its grand opening while we were there, and .com Sabores which served Portuguese and Italian specialties, a few blocks away.)

Pedro was a lovely host. The house is really amazing and it has all amenities you may need.

The apartment location was convenient to metro. The neighbor was safe but a bit noisy at night. Beds were comfortable. The kitchen had some limitations. No starters were included - dish soap, coffee, spices, sugar were all missing. A basic apartment. We didn’t cook dinner there, just made breakfast.
