Our stay was a perfect Portugal experience. Maria and her husband were very kind and picked my daughter and I up from the airport even though it was after 9.30 pm and our flight was delayed.
Maria's apartment was the top floor and it had amazing views with 2 different outlooks. There was a tiny balcony you could sit out on and doors and windows opened allowing fresh air. We found the washing machine handy on a three week Europe. The main centre was a 2.4km walk along the water and the metro was only 5minutes (down the hill), from the apartment. We loved the neighbourhood and and wandering through the interesting streets at night with all the restaurants added to the wonderful experience. We would highly recommend Maria's apartment.
