Mariana was welcoming and helpful. The description of the apartment was accurate. It's a very well-equipped, traditionally furnished and very spacious apartment. With the private roof terrace it's more like a second floor villa. In early September the terrace gets sun all day until about 5pm. The apartment is about 10 minutes' walk to the central square, has a good supermarket next door and just around the corner an excellent fruit and veg shop, Agromart, and a butcher where you can order roast chicken for eating in. There is a number of bars and cafes within a few minutes' walk. There is on-street parking right outside; spaces can get filled quickly, but we always found somewhere nearby.
