The apartment was perfect! Even better in person. Equipped with everything you need. It even had shampoo and shower gel, and hotel quality towels. Communication with the host was perfect. Internet is strong enough to work. Just a casual 10-15 walk to city centre.
We were here in October, so heat was not an issue. But if you're visiting in summer, it could get hot, as there is no AC (as with most homes in Portugal).
