Good with some exceptions
It is a quiet apartment
There was no shampoo in the bathroom, so we bought some and left it for the next guests.
We didn’t have any coffee pods for the coffee machine.
The chairs and table on the terrace were dusty.
The bathroom didn’t have any towel hooks.

Great location, no stairs in a comfortable apartment cow a reasonable price.
The location was near the market and many restaurants, shops and walking distance to many places. No stairs! Check-in and check out was easy. We were provided new towels and bedding with maid service after 1 week when I enquired.
There were no instructions for anything. Not enough towels. No hooks or towel bars. Construction next door may bother some people. Shower does not drain well.

0/10 is an understatement
We booked Casinha de Formosa for 5 nights, but had to leave after just one night there. On our first morning there, we found one dead cockroach behind the bathroom door. Didn’t think much of it so we disposed of it. However, when we came back to the apartment, we were welcomed by a couple of cockroaches running around the common area. We entered the apartment and found another cockroach behind the bathroom door where we had originally found the first one, and three more under the bed. It was clear that this was not an isolated problem, but that this infestation had been ongoing for some time. We suspect that there are nests of cockroaches behind the wall panelling.
To make matters worse, when we've informed Patricia, the owner, instead of concern or empathy, she completely dismissed our serious concerns, saying, “Tomorrow I'm going to the apartment and do cleaning and I'll throw some liquid for insects. In reality, the cockroach is harmless and may have appeared for the simple fact that the building next door was under construction. Yesterday when you entered, you didn't find anything.” This response is shockingly disrespectful and shows a total lack of responsibility and basic human decency.
To call cockroaches harmless is both incorrect and deeply insulting. These are unhygienic pests that should never be present in guest accommodation, let alone in the bedroom and bathroom.
It is absolutely disgraceful and beyond negligent that the host dismisses this issue so flippantly, revealing a total disregard and shocking ignorance of the risks posed to guests’ health and safety. This is unacceptable and should never be tolerated.
Her message showed no accountability, no apology, and no understanding of the stress this caused. Instead, she deflected blame onto us for not “finding anything” when we arrived — as though we should have started our holiday by going on a pest inspection.

Great location, lot of space but next to construction site :(
Very good location, apartment with plenty of space for 2 people ideal. Has all the equipment that is needed. It has an easy access, the apartment is still in a good condition. The owner was helpful and answered all my questions or requests.
Well we couldn't use the outdoor space. It's right next to the construction site what we didn't know. They started to make noise during the week from around 8am so you can have it instead of the alarm clock haha. Also the garden area looks obviously so much better only on the pictures.

El apartamento está bien situado, cerca del centro. Aunque el edificio está antiguo, está muy nuevo y reformado, con una cocina bien equipada.
La cama muy cómoda
La persona que lleva la gestión es muy amable y ofrece flexibilidad de horario en check in y check out.
Es un bajo interior y no tiene mucha luz natural.
En el baño hay un sistema de ventilación que tiene un zumbido constante día y noche, no encontré la manera de apagarlo, es bastante molesto.
El baño es incómodo, no hay ningún toallero o gancho para poner las toallas, y el borde del lavabo es muy fino, no puedes apoyar ni el cepillo de dientes.

Ubicación excelente , muy céntrica y cerca de bares , comercios y de un centro comercial donde puedes encontrar de todo . Estaba muy limpio , es amplio y había casi de todo
Baño muy pequeño y se salía el agua cuando te duchabas . Lavabos pequeños e incómodos .Ni un solo gancho para colgar las toallas . Tampoco había una tostadora , aunque la propietaria nos dijo que sí, no fuimos capaces de encontrarla . Almohadas muy bajas e incómodas para nosotros . La cama si me pareció muy cómoda .
