Claudios' studio was very comfortable. The view was beautiful and it was nice spending time on the enclosed porch watching sunrises, a full moon and many ships coming in. The view from the pool area is even more spectacular and was a nice place to go after a long hot day sightseeing. The small kitchenette had everything we needed if we eat there.The sleeping room was spacious and had plenty of cupboards and closets for our clothes. We could not get the washer-dryer to function but there was a clothes rack to hang things on to dry if you need to wash things out. The building was very secure which made us feel safe with our belongings. It is about a twenty minute walk to downtown and about thirty minutes walking back. Although, there are buses in about a five minute walking distance away and of course taxi's a phone call away. Portugal is beautiful and this is a great place to stay while seeing it all.
