I've booked Ricardo's house for a surprise weekend for my boyfriends birthday and we had a lovely stay! The house was occupied by others when we arrived (we had a very early flight), but Ricardo welcomed us in his studio in the city center, where we could leave our luggage and have a nice lunch in the mean time.
After that he took the bus with us to his house (which was a quick and cheap ride:-)).
The house was very nice, great design, peacefull garden, lovely bed and everything you need in the kitchen.
We're defenitly recommending it to friends and family and will come back!
Thanks again Ricardo
