Stayed for a few days in mid September. We were a bit worried that the area was a bit far out and run-down but on arrival and exploration, we realised that wasn't the case. Really lovely apartment, very well cared for and the décor is gorgeous. So comfy and stylish at the same time. The bedrooms are snug so if there are two of you per room with two large suitcases, both would need to be kept somewhere else, or stored in the wardrobe.
Location is perfect. Lots of local and very interesting shops on the road. Left to the square, lots of lovely bars and local places to eat. Check out the Sky bar at the Colesseum - really lovely place, very chilled. Its also very close to Santa Catarina Street which is the main shopping street, and walking distance down to Riberia.
Artur met us on arrival and gave us lots of tips on places to visit so incredibly helpful.
The only niggle was the lack of contact in the final week, which caused me a lot of stress as I emailed 3 times, text and telephoned. I think a response to an email isn't a lot to expect just to confirm that you will be met at the time you arrive so hopefully this will be rectified for future visitors. However, once we were there, Artur arrived the moment I rang him. Also during our visit, we had an issue with a light and he was around very quickly once I told him about it so just the initial arrival.
I would totally recommend this gorgeous and cosy pad.
