From the day we booked we had super communication with the host Vitor. He replied rapidly and always was helpful.
Check in was super easy, we were able to drop our bags early and use the downstairs bathroom/bedroom to get changed and freshened up after our overnight flight. This was really appreciated.
The location is excellent quite a few locally owned restos and bars within a minutes walk. Arazem was our favourite, an antique barn with a bar and light food. Also the tavern directly under the house. Despite the closeness of these places we were not bothered by any noise. We found we could walk most places easily from the location, the Infante tram literally runs outside the front door too, along with a number of bus lines.
The house is lovely. As in the photos, lots of character. Great air con in each room as needed, but the house really did not get overly hot. Kitchen is well stocked, easy to cook a nice dinner and enjoy it in the dining room. A nice bottle of Port wine was left for us to enjoy, a great touch. There was also coffee, sugar, oil and vinegar, nice basics to get you started.
Towels and linens were good quality, house was very clean.
Thanks for the great hospitality.
