This place was as promised and even better! Julia, our hostess, was very generous and helpful. Even though their was a bit of a language barrier, her daughter, Carlotta, was there to help. The studio was clean, very tastefully decorated, had a good sized kitchen, and beautiful bathroom. The rain shower head was a huge plus! There were fresh baked goods from her husband's bakery and some local port wine to welcome us. She provided coffee and a few other morning must haves as well to make sure we were comfortable. There were also guide maps and other materials to help guide our stay. We opted to just walk up the street a block for dinner at Francesinhas de Rasa, which was an awesome intro to Portuguese food! The studio looks out into a very well kept back courtyard with a hammock and calla lillies, and we were not disturbed overnight by any noise. In the morning we were invited to enjoy a lovely breakfast at her husband's bakery, just across the street. Unfortunately, our schedule only allowed us to stay one night, but I would definitely return here whenever I was in the area! Thanks for a wonderful stay, Julia!
