The apartment is nice, although the bedrooms and the bathroom are a little too small. The space is ok for 4-5 persons, but for 8 persons would be too tight, especially as there is only one bathroom with a shower, the other one has only a toilet. It is a comfortable apartment, quiet, safe, with a beautiful terrace, where we spent relaxing evenings, and a very nice living room. The location is great, 10 minutes walk from the city center, with supermarkets and other useful stores nearby (Pingo Doce is the best). Helena can also offer you a cheap 24hours car parking, which is fine and safe if you have a car, as there are no too many vacant parking places on the streets.
