We had a wonderful time at Amandio's place!! The apartment is very artsy and has a lot of charm. Its a very different kind of place! Everything was very clean upon arrival -- we had clean sheets, towels, everything, and the host had even left us breakfast (bread, honey, cereal, milk), a bottle of red wine, and allowed us to use things around the house (olive oil, etc). We also loved the little "balcony" on the roof. A family member called Theresa welcomed my friend very warmly. The location was fantastic, and very close to the train station that takes you to Caiscais, which was very useful. We loved the area and the apartment and would gladly come back and recommend it to anyone!!
