Great apartment in a great location in a great city!
Gonçalo is a fantastic host. Communication was speedy and when we checked in (early) he spent a lot of time making sure we knew how everything worked in the apartment and giving us help and advice on what to see, and how to get there, local hints and tips and a map to get us started. This was a brilliant start to our visit. He even picked us up from the airport as it was a Sunday and he was not working!
The apartment is in a great location within the city for easy access to everything and there are masses of shops and restaurants within minutes walk. Despite being so close to the centre it is really quiet so no worries if you are a light sleeper. Apartment has A/C and also heating (which we needed in January!) so would be good any time of year. The walk up to the apartment is steep in places and then the stairs up to the 3rd floor so probably not good if you have mobility problems but I am 60 and managed it fine. The up-side of this is the views - spectacular from every window!!
Everything in the apartment was just as shown and we found everything we needed. The bed was comfy and bed linen was good quality. Plenty of hot water for showers. No noise from other residents in the block and lovely and light and airy.
