Samuel is the nicest host ever! He responds immediately, is very welcoming and friendly :) The handle of my window was broken when I checked in, but Samuel repaired it the next morning! The whole flat is quite big, you share kitchen and bathroom with 5 other people, but everyone was very nice and left the public spaces clean, plus there's there's also a small balcony with lots of sunlight. The room itself was not too big, but comfy. It was super clean, though I could sense a smell of mould, but I guess that's due to the heavy rainfalls in nov/dec. Opening the window several times per day made it almost go away and you couldn't see any mould on the walls. Overall my stay at "La doce lar" was not outstanding, but very good for what I paid! :)
