Excellent!!!
We had a wonderful stay during the World Cup. The building is in a great location, next to nice urban beaches, a great area for walking and jogging. Other nice beaches such as Barra are within walking distance (and beautiful beaches such as those near the airport are easily accessed by bus). It is easy to get to the historic center and other tourist centers by bus or taxi. There are shops and restaurants in the building, and a supermarket and shopping center are in Barra (20-30 minutes walk or short taxi/bus ride). The apartment is small but has everything you need for 2-4 people (one bedroom and a sofabed in the living room). The kitchen in nice and has everything you should need (fridge, microwave, stove, etc - though no oven).
Glicacia the owner is a very nice, honest person. We had some challenges with language, as she speaks only Portuguese, and some difficulty in transferring the funds for the deposit. But she was very patient and understanding, and everything worked out. I would recommend renting from her! If we ever make it back to Salvador (which we hope we will!) we will definitely contact Gilcacia to rent her apartment! Obrigado!
