Right off the bat I will say that this was my best Airbnb experience thus far. Joana and Tiago are the best hosts that I have encountered on Airbnb. They were friendly and courteous since pre-booking and accommodated my requests in order for me to book it.
They were punctual when handing me the keys and gave me a thorough explanation of everything in the apartment and, unexpectedly, welcomed us with an excellent bottle of port wine. And what a great apartment it was, decorated in a modern and chic way that made us relax like we were at home. The kitchen is equipped with everything that you'll ever need for a home cooked meal. The bathroom was extremely clean with lots of towels provided. There's a washing machine for the clothes that completes the home away from home experience. The pictures are accurate.
Damaia did feel like home, we originally booked Joana's apartment for 1 month and loved it so much that we quickly extended it for a second month. In the neighborhood there's a few mom and pop food stores for quick access, and there's three big supermarkets (Lidl, Continente, Pingo Doce, Aldi) not that far away. Also not that far away is an urban train station and a metro station which both can be used to go into the city relatively quick. Also a bus stop literally outside the building.
Overall the apartment, the apartment building and location were clean, and most importantly safe. There's no problems walking very late at night, and during the day the neighbors give you a friendly wave and a smile with a very Portuguese "boa tarde". Best of all, at all times during my two months Tiago and Joana were always attentive to my needs. So as a guest I couldn't ask for more. They helped me a lot in my particular situation during this trip, and I want to give a very public "Thanks!" to both of them for it!
