I had zero expectations, that’s the second time in my life I chose to stay in someone’s home and I’m glad I did it.
Pedro is extremely responsive and a good communicator.
Although in a crowded location, I got the right instructions and had no problem in locating the apartment.
Pedro waited for me late, as I arrived after 9:00 pm.
I immediately felt the domestic vibe of the place. The room I got was isolated from the outside noise - with the exception of the occasional parties going on in the neighboring apartments. Fortunately, it happened only one night.
Old style building and apartment - Pedro did his best to preserve the original flavor.
So expect some minor inconveniences - no elevator, the door of the room is not closing very well, etc - nothing that bothered me.
Plus - traditional Portuguese building do not have central heating, so expect to use an electric radiator during the cold months.
Overall I had a memorable stay, a whole week.
I would definitely come back.
