The apartment is in a good location…near the water, Time Out (we ate there several times), and close to many sites. The three bedrooms were very spacious…the common space was very cozy. The galley kitchen was very clean and modern and had everything you could ever need. We were there for a ten day trip with carry on luggage only so we needed to wash our clothes at the apartment. David has the manual for the combo washer/dryer but I spent way too much time figuring it out. In case you want to use these, turn the dial to the right to the icon that looks like a chemistry beaker…this is mixed fabrics like cotton and synthetic…the wash takes about 2 hours…we brought our own laundry detergent sheets which worked fine. Once the clothes are washed, make sure the clothes are just damp and not wet, then select the beaker icon with the sunshine on the left…this will take over an hour. If they are not completely dry, there are drying racks. My only complaint about the apartment is the steps… we understood there were a lot but that was not the issue…the steps are very shallow and most of stairways did not have handrails. Our apartment in Porto had the same number of stairs but they were wide and deep and had handrails. Lastly someone had mentioned that David also offers car service so I asked him about this as we had a morning flight…he arrived right on time and got us to the airport in plenty of time for our flight.
