I never met the host but I did meet Margarida who was extraordinarily helpful & accommodating! I was disappointed with the size as it appears so much bigger in the pictures. The place is newly renovated clean & modern, nice, with an unusual layout.
The provided towels were cheap & left my body covered with towel lint which became a serious problem in my hair.
The toilet paper was scented & colored which I personally don't recommend anyone to use - even plain cheaper toilet paper provides more. I'm sensitive to perfumes & scents so I can tell you the toilet paper was not something I could use. I also found the towels & bed linens were too strong of a perfumed laundry scent, as well. It did cause me some trouble breathing.
There is no AC which wasn't a big problem as opening the windows up does provide air - & you would want to do this as the paint smell is strong. :~(
Overall though, the location was perfect for me.
The only complaint was that I had messaged specifically about the stairs as my father is disabled & I never received feedback on this specifically. Unfortunately, he did have problems with them so, the stairs are not for those who have difficulty.
There was also a beeping noise coming from the hot water heater we never figured out. It randomly came on but we didn't understand what it meant - it was simply an annoying noise.
