We loved the location, decor, and space in Santiago’s lovely apartment. The metro station was very close & we were able to get to all the sites - and the airport- easily. We really appreciated the host’s great communication with quick responses to our questions & requests for various things, including allowing us to keep our bags in the apartment for several hours after checkout because of our late departure from the city - that was a huge help. They provided a fan for a room that has no air conditioning upon request- so appreciated!
The tourist tax (payable in cash upon check-in) could be a concern for some guests - to have €3 per guest per night could be hard for guests just arriving in the EU - if we hadn’t just been in Portugal it may have been hard to have the euros handy.
Thank you so much for your hospitality!
