Rosa & Paulo welcomed me extremely friendly. Paulo carried my suitcase up the stairs (what a gentleman!). The place could not have been cleaner. Shiny tiles everywhere, typical Portugese decorations and a very inviting bed. Fresh fruits on the table, as well as chocolates and two tiny bottles of Port, bottles of water and even a dish with different kinds of tea and Nespresso coffee. And then I opened the door to the balcony and saw this amazing view on the old city centre. WOUH!
During my stay (5 days) I spent several hours at the balcony just wondering how every I time I watched, the scenery had changed. Sunrise, sunset, fog, flocks of seagull, cats hunting birds, all accompanied by distant trumpet music from the trumpenist at the cathedral. The nearby living typical Portuguese rooster announcing sunrise added extra charm to my stay at Rosa's.
