Our first visit to Tavira, we loved our studio. It is well equipped, clean and functional. We used the outdoor area each day, having our breakfast, a meal or enjoying a glass of wine. It is located less than 5 mins from the river, everything in Tavira is walkable.Sophie was a first class host, meeting us in the early hours as we had a late flight that landed before midnight I'd love to go back to Tavira and I wouldn't stay anywhere else.

Sehr schönes und ruhiges Apartment mitten in Tavira mit kurzen Wegen zur Fähre auf die Insel und zum Bahnhof. Das Apartment war sauber und gepflegt und man kann einen ruhigen und friedlichen Innenhof nutzen, um unter einem großen Baum zu entspannen, der Schatten spendet. Es gibt eine zweite Wohneinheit, mit der man sich den Innenhof teilt und eine gemeinschaftlich genutzte Waschmaschine. Außerdem gibt es dort zwei süße Katzen, die frei im Hof herumlaufen können. Die Vermieterin Sophie war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns bei ihr sehr wohl gefühlt - vielen Dank!

Estúdio anos 80

A TV que deveria ser TV por cabo só tinha os 4 canais era do século passado e nem comando tinha. A internet raramente funcionou porque era captada através dum repetidor de sinal. Uma janela tinha o manipulo quebrado e outra não tinha sequer fechadura. O calor era insuportável e só mantendo as janelas abertas e as duas ventoinhas a funcionar à noite conseguimos dormir mas em roupa interior é destapados. A cama de casal rangia a qualquer movimento tornando-se incômodo para dormir. A torneira do chuveiro não era misturadora, era dos anos 80 e para se conseguir acertar a temperatura demorava imenso tempo. A primeira vez é única que utilizamos uma frigideira deparámo-nos com uma coisa toda encardida portanto nunca mais cozinhámos, aliás o fogão também era dos anos 80, os bicos estavam gastos e os desenhos para se perceber qual era o botão correspondente mal se viam. O frigorífico tinha a porta do congelador descaída por isso tínhamos que levantá-la para abrir e fechar a outra porta porque batiam uma na outra. Só tínhamos direito a 2 rolos de papel higiênico para 8 dias porque a senhora Sophie só a vimos no dia do check-in e no terceiro dia que foi quando aproveitamos para reclamar sobre o estado das coisas, que justificou culpabilizando os últimos incluímos não demonstrando qualquer vontade de resolver o que quer que fosse, limitando-se a deixar uma nota por escrito a dizer que tinha estado do lado de fora do apartamento, que tinha ligado o portátil dela e que apanhava rede Internet. Fizemos o check-out às 10h de hoje é a senhora Sophie também não apareceu.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Mar, 2020
O estúdio que alugo não é um apartamento moderno e luxuoso.Por isso mesmo pratico preços acessíveis. Trata-se dum simples estúdio de estilo rústico, com grande quintal. no centro histórico da cidade.Não existe ar condicionado , e os meus electrodomésticos, embora não sejam da última geração, funcionam normalmente. No entanto,qualquer objecto no estúdio que tenha ficado danificado pelo simples uso contínuo ou manuseamento forçado e inapropriado será reparado ou substituído ,obviamente, o mais rapidamente possível e em hora própria para tal. Mais quero esclarecer que não forneço papel higiénico. Coloco simplesmente 2 rolos de papel higiénico na casa de banho como também sabonete líquido e algum detergente( tanto de limpeza como de loiça e roupa ) como forma de acolher os meus clientes à chegada, que ficam com o meu número de telemóvel para poderem contactar-me sempre que assim o desejarem.

Gemütlich und typisch protugiesisch

Sehr nette Vermieterin, einfache portugiesische Ausstattung. In den Wintermonaten kommt leider keine Sonne in den Gartenbereich, was natürlich in den Sommermonaten von Vorteil ist.
