Thank you for the early check-in, it was appreciated, especially after a long flight. Host was responsive, however, not very helpful. We were quite disappointed during our stay. The ventilation was terrible, especially considering the AC was not working. There are no windows in the bedrooms (only windows in the front room) and the apartment was stuffy, hot, and felt like we were breathing still air. Also, I understand the toilet paper situation, however, out of 6 places that we stayed at in Portugal (not to mention all the places we’ve stayed at in Europe), we have never been asked to put toilet paper in the garbage can. As well, we understand the reasoning, however, we have never been told how to manage our showers (asked to take short showers or to stagger our showers). Bedding smelled heavily of fabric wash/softener, was very off-putting.
We liked the location, unfortunately, that is all we liked about the apartment, regrettably it is not a place we would recommend.
