We would strongly recommend André and Cláudia’s place. We are a family of 4 and were in Portugal for 11 nights for both a family vacation and business travel (great wi-fi). The apartment is exactly as shown in the pictures - bright, airy, impeccably clean, surprisingly spacious (6 rooms!), with a lot of charm and color. It was quiet to work or sleep, or we could just open the balcony doors and the sounds of the city greeted us. Our kids (8 and 10 years) loved the bunk beds and the cable tv, with kids channels as well as sport, reality, movies, etc. You can walk everywhere from here, and the famous Number 28 tramcar is literally at the end of the street. The nearby supermarket stocks everything you could need with good prices. There are stylish coffee shops in the next street, great gift stores nearby, and restaurants literally just below and down the street as well as in neighboring areas.
Communication with Claudia was great from the start and throughout. Extra kindnesses included coffee maker and supply for our stay, new towels mid visit, and storing bags for us when we arrived early and departed late.
Thank you for such a great stay!
