Everthing was very smooth - Ema was very helpful, in contact and made us feel at ease about the booking - my parents had never used air bnb so this was especially important. On arrival we were greeted by the incredibly helpful Francisco who told us all the important sights and labeled our map and took extra time to tell us his favorite beaches and places to visit. Having an underground parking space was brilliant. The apartment was spotless - just a lovely as the pictures and bigger than we imagined. We felt totally at home. The terrace has a wonderful tooftops view and really makes the apartment - lovely to sit out at night time and enjoy breakfast/ sunbathing in the day. A five minute walk and you are right in the centre of the barrio alto with all the restaurants bars and shops but the apartment is hidden away from the street with it's courtyard entrance and is very peaceful. You are in walking distance from all the restaurants (we loved Pharmacia, The Insolito and 100 Maneiras), theres a supermarket on the road and a tram stop right outside the door. Brilliant location. Would highly recommend and would come back. Thank you!
