  : the location was amazing. I was able to access everywhere by foot. ships are close by, and so are restaurants. the apartment was clean and neat on arrival.
  : BOOK AT YOUR OWN RISK AND IF DO NOT MIND STAYING ON A PLACE THAT SMELLS LIKE SEWAGE. there was a very horrible smell coming from the bathroom. on the first and second night, I sprayed a a entire bottle of air freshener in there to help the smell but it wasnt doing anything. on the third day, I contacted the owner of the property, he was a little cheeky with his comments and acted as if he was oblivious to the issue. when I showed him a review that was left in August of 2021 that stated the same issue, his exact words were I fixed the house in 2020 and I had bookings after august 2021 and no one complained. I allowed him to know that if I am complaining about something that has previously been stated in a review is because theres a issue that needs to be fixed. he then sent Joao to try and fix the problem. Joao did whatever he could, however, the smell only got worse from there. because I only had two nights I left, I didnt even bother contacting Nuno (the owner) as he was a little rude the first time. I just simply sprayed the place every minute, maintained the windows opened and the bedroom door closed. which didnt really help. I opted to spend most of the day out of the property and only come to sleep. the smell in the bathroom is deeper than whats in the surface, its as if the sewage where all the waste goes is built up with waste or something but that smell was horrible. booking.com really needs to check houses and reviews before they allow a accommodation to be listed.there was also no extra bedding. I was there for 4 night so and couldnt change the beddings or my towel.

  : Comfortable beds, nice big bed upstairs. Bedding and towels felt very fresh. Location was in a nice area, close to tram 28 stop, nice streets with cafes, shops and groceries close by.
  : The bathrooms were not very clean. There was brown water and chunks of poo in the toilet brush holders. Also colourful splatters around the walls near the toilets. When it rained there was an extremely loud drip (sounded like a drum) outside the upstairs windows. This woke us up several times both nights. We could not get the washing machine to work, but I didnt bother to contact the manager for help. There was a large amount of condensation above the air conditioner in the single bed bedroom. This dropped into the beds sometimes.

  : Small apt but enough space for 6 people
  : When we booked the apt was supposed to come with washer but we were informed the washer not working and we have to go to their office to do our laundry which is 500 m away up and downhill. The heater in the main bathroom is not working. Be careful for tall people as the upstairs bathroom ceiling is very low. The online payment system was not working and we have to end up paying in cash.
