The apartment is outstanding. Very luxurious, impeccable design. Every detail was carefully considered - the lighting, portable wifi, the beautiful wine left in the fridge. The only downside to the apartment was that the apartment was on the top floor, and the steps were very steep. We had 2 big luggage’s with us and found the climb up and down very difficult.
The hosts- very attentive and absolutely lovely. No issue at all. Check in and out was a breeze.
The location was very central to some nice restaurants and bakeries (that sell the famous tarts). However, we didn’t realise that we had booked the apartment during the week that celebrates the national day of Portugal (June). Every night there were huge parties held on our street- people drinking, eating and dancing on the street, and very loud music played on every corner. This was really cool at first, however it was impossible to get any sleep at night. The party would stop at 4 am and sometimes 6 am - every night. Even with ear plugs that we brought, we couldn’t sleep! As we had booked heaps of day tours we found that our trip in Portugal was mostly sleep deprived...
Before booking, I would check with Air BnB host to make sure there aren’t any parties/festivals hosted on the street.
Besides the noise factor, I would recommend this apartment.
