She, and her family, took fantastic care of me during the stay. From storing luggage to preparing amazing meals (across the street) they were kind and generous. The apartment had a small view of the river and all of Gaia was available. Quite place. It is small but plenty for a single or couple to spend time in. I enjoyed my stay, more for the hospitality of the host than anything else. The Mercado was a fun place to witness a Portugal World Cup win.
