After regular contact with the hosts prior to going, I had no doubt that I'd have any issues with this trip. We were collected from the airport promptly as promised, which had been organised by the hosts. We were met by a friendly and informative host who showed us around the apartment and even took that time to sit down and go through the city map and highlight areas of interest, good restaurants and things to do.
The apartment itself is exactly as advertised on the site. It was welcoming, secure and clean. The apartment is within a building and access is extremely secure and safe. There is a lift available as the apartment is on the 4th floor. The apartment was very quiet (considering it was on a busy road) and the location was fantastic. Less than a two minute walk from Ribeira square and not a far walk from other attractions. There is a taxi rank outside for convenience and a station not a far walk for the metro. There is. Supermarket conveniently located around the corner.
The apartment was spacious, very clean and tastefully furnished. Very nice shower, comfortable beds (no issues with a good night sleep) and a well equipped kitchen. Balcony overlooks road and provides view of the river. Apartment is perfect for a city break.
I would highly recommend a stay. Fantastic apartment in a wonderful city. Thank you ORM.
