Positives: the apartment is stylish, loved the balcony and morning sunrise. Location was amazing for great eateries and public transport, walkable to popular sites. We got to check in early and leave our luggage. Has a lift!
However the practicality of the place did not suit a young family (2+6) in hindsight.
Cons: I found the communication irregular with Joao. We requested a cot, it wasn't there but that was quickly sorted. No kettle and after many msgs, was told he would bring one but never did. No msgs after that. TV and Wifi didnt work all trip after much chasing. Broken cupboard doors, some lights not working. Cup of cigarette ends and lighter on the balcony (unsafe for toddlers)
Shower head comes off the wall!! It is a HAZARD with kids and Must be fixed! . Place needs maintanence and host to respond better and honour his word. Shame because we did have a great trip but just wished the stay was better.
