Maria is really nice and helpful. She was especially lovely with our kids. The appartment is very clean and the equipment is fine. We found enough towels, soap, kitchen spices and even some water and a bottle of Vinho Verde in the fridge upon our arrival. As we have been there at the hottest time of the year, the appartment got quite hot (you'll find 2 fans). The rooms have enough natural light but no view. The garden is beautiful and perfect for a relaxed breakfast. The situation for public transport is very good (direct bus to the beach, direct metro to the historic centre & train station).
