My boyfriend and I were fairly disappointed with this apartment. The pictures make it look beautiful and renovated. And although it is, it definitely has some problems.
Pros:
The kitchen and living space are very nice and accurately depicted in the photos. We were given a bottle of wine and Portuguese pastries when we arrived.
Cons:
The bedroom and bathroom are not nearly as nice as the kitchen and living room. There are no windows in the bedroom and bathroom, making them both extremely stuffy. The shower clearly has mold in it. The mold causes it to smell and that smell carries over to the bedroom. There was only one fan in the apartment which barely makes a difference.
Also, something to note. During our stay there was a festival going on throughout Alfalma. It was very noisy with music playing until 1:00 in the morning. We didn't mind and thought it was a lot of fun! But something to consider. If you're visiting during that time of year.
