Filipe is a great host with a fabulous bar/restaurant next door, he was very welcoming and informative.. The location of the apartment is fantastic, but although it was very clean, it was somewhat run down and tired, rather than rustic and vintage!
The problem for us, was that it was a particularly noisy apartment, above a not so quiet street at night time with revellers and noisy garbage trucks! Also, the tenants above, argued loudly and thumped about on the wooden floor above, making it difficult to sleep at times.
