The overall experience was really great. One problem we had with the place was that because we visited Portugal in December, the weather was pretty chilly. The place provides you with 2 rollable heaters and every time we turn them on, we were not able to use appliances in the kitchen. When we did for the first few times, the fuse box would keep tripping.
We were quite happy that the place came with the laundry machine, but there was no drying rack, so we had to sort of hang our clothes all over the apartment.
Vera was very kind and responsive. She provided us with great tips on what to do around the city.
