The room was as pictured and super clean. Check in was very easy, we have received the details for it a couple hours before we needed them. The room has a small fridge which was a pleasant surprise. We were provided with one glass, even though the room was booked for two guests. We have purchased two wine glasses, hopefully these will be there for the next guests. A small brush would also be appreciated as there isn’t any cleaning offered regardless of the length of your stay.
Location is great for walking in to the centre of town, however you can definitely tell you are not in the touristy bit anymore. Unfortunately all the reviews that mention communication issues are true. Unknown to us, there is a massive ongoing construction just outside the windows. This is obviously not the host’s fault, however had we known about it, we would have booked a different place. It was extremely noisy, the room was pretty much shaking from 8AM. Is this too early to start the day? No, of course not, but it would have been nice to have the option to sleep in on our holiday. When we raised the issue with Luís, we weren’t acknowledged at all for the duration of the stay.
All in all if you’re not bothered about having an early start to your day for the foreseeable future, it’s a good budget place to stay.
