Some words about 1 week stay at the Filipe's apartment. First of all Filipe is a kind man and you can be absolutely confident with him. He stayed in contact and was diplomatic and helpful during the preparations to the trip and during stay at his place.
Filipe has got a huge apartment, amazing view from kitchen window, big balcony and nice view from balcony as well. His cat is another nice, sweet and quiet bonus. If you choose his apartment -you will live in rather old building in a flat with good interior. Definitely a good place to stay and a good location for tourists to get wherever one may want. One more good thing about that apartment - rather silent area at night.
Filipe, thanks a lot and warmest regards from me and my friend Tatyana!
