To be honest, after reading all these amazing reviews we were a bit disappointed and we expected more. Check-in was great, Miguel's father was there and he told us a lot about where to go to dinner and how to get to specific spots that we wanted to visit. The apartment was clean but the mirror in the bathroom was cleaned with something that left a big white 'haze', so we had to clean it ourselves. In our opinion the kitchen was missing a lot of stuff. We specifically book airbnb to be able to cook. So, a dishwasher is something we select on. There was only one dishwasher tablet available which meant that we bought our own. There was no olive oil, no salt, no pepper. There were some pans but we missed a bigger frying pan. Considering this apartment hosts 4 people (even up to 6), you would expect cooking equipment that you can use for meals for that amount of people. I wouldn't recommend cooking in this apartment. We also missed garbage bags. We stayed in the apartment for several days with lots of cooking, one garbage bag was not enough. Also I would have like more recycling since Portugal is so well setup for it.
Toilet paper apparently can't be flushed trough the toilet (if I understood the note about the toilet correctly. Tried asking the host but didnt get a response), something I would have liked to know beforehand. Also, once again, more garbage bags would have been nice for that reason. Bit gross to leave dirty toiletpaper sitting for several days.
Location of the apartment was really nice, a lot of good stuff on walking distance, parking garage close and metro super close. Supermarket just around the corner.
