Whilst I did not actually meet with Rui due to his work commitments, he gave us an excellent set of directions to walk to his house from the station.
He also offered help and advice during our stay. The house was as it appeared in the photos and was lovely and clean and well maintained. There was also a few essentials such as tea and coffee which was a nice surprise. The house is in a good location, central to downtown and the beds were comfortable. I would stay there again. Oh, you must be comfortable with climbing a small steep staircase to upstairs.
