Rui is a good host, we never got to see him personally, but he sent us a map upon our arrival, detailed instructions of how to get to the apartment from the airport and how to enter the apartment. It was really easy.
His apartment is located in a very convenient area, close to the very heart of the historical centre and just around the corner from the private art galleries street. There were many options for restaurants and shops within few minutes of walk.
The kitchen is fully equipped though, in case you decide to cook something (just the oven was dirty).
We also appreciated a lot the small things that we found in the kitchen, like sugar, salt, bread for toasts, butter, rice...
The apartment doesn’t look exactly like the one in the picture, the couch is different and also the plants that make the place look much more cosy, are missing, but we still had a really good time there. The apartment is in a quiet street, but there was a very noisy man shouting all the time from the open windows of another house. The lady living next door called the police the day of our departure. We also informed Rui and he said that he must do something to solve this problem.
The overall experience was very positive, I think Rui’s place is a very good value for money proposal. We recommend it.
