Very warm and friendly welcome from Joana's family. Marta was flexible about our arrival and departure times - and we were grateful for a helping hand with the cases on the stairs! The apartment is newly fitted out, well-equipped, spacious and clean - as well as being convenient for Cais do Sodre, the Mercado etc and we would recommend it. The main upstairs bedroom was quiet but light sleepers using the lower room could be disturbed by very late night conversation and domestic noise from the neighbours below. Marta explained says they are apparently due to move out so that should soon be resolved.
