This house is nice, but may be not as nice as in the majority of comments published. The strong points are 1) the location (in a quiet residential area with good restaurants and actual people living, at walking distance from most more touristic districts, 2) the comfort and size of the apartment. It is not particularly cheap, though, and there are a few things that are not OK (in particular the window in the room that does not close properly. The heating provided might be insufficient in normal winter conditions. It is not easy to cook, because the hot plates are not working well. The management of the rental is pretty professional, but also rather anonymous. You don't know exactly whom you are having exchanges with: not the owner, and not Joana (mentioned on the site) but Barbara. We received messages from Barbara who mistook our rental with another one. So there is a little bit of anonymity here, which is not typically what we expect from renting the house from someone precise!
