I want so much to give this place five stars. It’s almost there.
I won’t lie, the views you get from this stay are breathtaking. But it’s missing an extra touch that would take this place to the next level.
For the price, it’s worth what it is. But a little extra money in the place in the beds, towels, shower head, kitchen, kitchen amenities - I would easily be willing to pay about 150% the current listing.
Whats annoying about this place isn’t so much the hills to get to it, taking a cab from the airport to the local Pingo Doce gets you to an elevator that eliminates most of the hassle. What aggravated me was the weak electric panel. We had to choose between keeping the heater on or turning on the stove to cook a meal. The power goes out when the stove is running with other electrical appliances - something I wish I’d known coming to this place in the winter.
The flooring is cold and could use some carpets / rugs but nothing some house slippers can’t manage.
Overall, I’d say Daniel was an exemplary host and he’s running a place that should be a lot more expensive.
4.5/5
