Valeria's apartment was clean and comfortable with space for the five adult family members on this trip. The main bedroom was a good size but the two smaller bedrooms are much smaller than expected and could be problematic if you were travelling with large bags, as other than the bed, there is no room for anything else. The bathroom is tiny but has everything you need. The living area with kitchen was functional (washer & drier also) but some smaller lights would add some ambiance in the evening, as it did not have a cosy feeling. The balcony was nice but the view is literally untidy gardens, cranes and the backs of other apartments ( the apartment next door looked straight out onto the balcony and we felt like we were invading their privacy in the evening). The area is quiet and close to small grocery stores and a great restaurant (Sr.Lisboa...make a reservation!) but be prepared for steep cobbled hills to climb. There was no face to face contact with Valeria but she was quick to answer questions by text. There was also no local info, as in other airbnb's we've stayed in, such as guidebooks, fliers from attractions, and bus & train info which are always useful, particularly as the internet was not great.
