Lena prepared the apartment well before we arrived. The main gate and the apartment door are coded; that makes the check-in really smooth. It is on the ground floor but the apartment level is raised; no passerby will be able to peer into the apartment. This helps too if you have big luggage. It is well-maintained, neat and pleasant to stay at.
There are plenty of good restaurants nearby like Tasquinha da Linha and Frango da Brasa which serve Portuguese dishes - perfect if you need early breakfast or late dinner.
There is plenty of open space to park your car, it's free from 7 pm to 9 am. It is near the airport; that helps save time as well.
