Ana's place brought a sense of home. Located just next to the main shopping street, getting around was very easy. It was also an easy walk to the nearest supermarket (Pingo Doce), and the main square by the river just round the corner. Although it was centrally located, the apartment was very quiet. It felt like a retreat right in the city centre.
Ana was not available, but Marieta came in and showed us around the house. She was also extremely quick to respond when we had trouble with the washing machine and other amenities. All were quickly resolved with minimal inconveniences. Marieta was determined to make our stay a very pleasant one.
Hot and strong showers, central heating were extremely comfortable in the chilly December. Strongly recommend for a stay.
