Do NOT STAY HERE AS A TOURIST.
First ever negative review in 10 years.
The apartment is ok. Actually it’s kinda nice, however it isn’t for tourists in ANY way.
The area is low income, high rise flats from The 70’s, and not close to anything whatsoever.
No cafes, no pubs, nothing within a km. Literally nothing. I walked to pingo doce, it’s 1.4 km up and down hills. It’s not a pleasant walk.
I arrived and realized it was a mistake, immediately contacted them as not only is the area unpleasant, and without any facilities, it’s also hilly, and unsuitable for anyone that isn’t fit (they told me I should have asked about my 77 year old mum before booking?)
They refused to help, in any way, they refused any refund.
This is a locals area and a locals place.
It’s NOT IN ANY WAY a tourist friendly area.
Do NOT BOOK THIS PLACE if you don’t have a car, or want any form of outlook. (The view from the front door is literally a block of concrete stairs)
This is a low income local neighborhood I left after one night, (I was booked for 3)
I contacted them immediately lthe hosts refused to refund. The remaining nights under any circumstances.
The place isn’t suitable for much. The nearest supermarket is 1.4km away up and down hills. It’s NOT a nice area. Do NOT STAY HERE unless you have a car and don’t expect much.
I hated it. The communication with the owners turned very sour as soon as I said I wasn’t happy. AGAIN, do not stay here unless you have a car and are local. It’s a lousy area, and the hosts are totally about money.
If you are not a local, and don’t Ah e a car….You will regret it if you stay here.
I sincerely cannot abide leaving a negative review, however, they left me no choice after refusing any from of refund (apparently I should know the area)
