My partner and I stayed here for a few nights at the end of a month-long road trip around Portugal and Spain. We were looking for a comfortable apartment for a few nights before we began our journey home and Rita's place offered exactly that.
We were met by Rita's friend, Anna, who let us into the apartment and shared important information with us. The apartment was clean and had all the amenities we needed to cook meals. The bed was super comfortable and we even had a bottle of wine waiting for us when we arrived which we thought was a thoughtful gesture.
The apartment is on the second floor of a building with no elevator so it may not be suitable for people who are unable to carry their bags or who require an elevator. We ate a lot of delicious food during our holiday so we were thankful to be able to work some of it off ;)The futon is in the process of being replaced as it is currently broken but future guests shouldn't have any issue with this.
The apartment is in a fantastic location with great cafes all around **if you get a chance, the brekkie at Brooklyn Cafe is great!** and it's a short walk to the main shops and tourist areas. The apartment is situated on a quieter street with little traffic so the area feels nice and local - not touristy and noisy.
Overall, we really enjoyed this apartment and would stay again if given the opportunity!
Thanks Rita!
