our host was really nice and informative. she gave us info on a festival that was happening when we arrived. she also informed us of how cafes and stuff close early on Sunday in the city. we found the location to be great. only 17 minutes of walking to the central bus station. there's also a super market (pingo) about 3 minutes from the location. it was super clean and comfortable. there's also a super sweet, friendly and cute labrador named Blanca (medium-sized, but on the smaller side).
