I enjoyed my stay. The location was very convenient to the railway station. This made my train ride to/from Lisbon easy, as well as the commute to the Aguda beach. Location is further away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist area which I liked as well. The neighbourhood felt very safe.
Locals do not speak English much so I do recommend knowing some basic phrases. Armando was great. He responded pretty quickly to messages and even drop by to see how were things.
Main concern was spotty internet connection. I had a data plan so it didn't bother me much, but good to keep in mind if you don't have a data plan while staying here.
