This place was exactly as described on Air BnB.
The flat was very quiet, despite having shared spaces. The whole place was immaculately clean and well equipped with everything you might need. A daily renewed fruit basket was a nice touch.
The location was a bit away from the main city attractions (about 50 minutes by tram) but the tram stop was a couple of minute's walk away, so factor this in to your day's plan and it's no hardship. You need a Zone 3 ticket to take you into the main city at a cost of 1.60 Euros a trip. Get off at Trinidad, Campo or Bolhao to be in the central districts. Buy a ticket using the machine at the tram stop and load it up with 10 journeys and you get one journey free. Don't forget to dob your ticket on the scanner at the stop before you get on.
Ubers are mega-cheap, the journey back to the airport was less than 10 Euros!
Matisinhos area is rather quiet, although we were told there are some excellent seafood restaurants if that's your thing. There is also HopTrip, an excellent craft beer bar just 10 minute's walk away. Yessss!!!
Although we didn't meet Carla, she was very attentive and in touch through the app most days. She went beyond what was expected and bought some gluten-free bread for my partner after we couldn't find any ourselves. Thank you so much Carla!
Would definitely recommend this place to any of my friends.
