We really enjoyed our room, #4, the room and private bathroom in a separate building through the kitchen. The room is small, but we were able to open 2 large suitcases and 2 smaller carry on suitcases. There were a couple of small issues which were fixed the next day...very quickly looked after. Super location, just a few minutes walk from the train station and many bus routes. We found a great restaurant where they spoke English just down the street, Restaurante Churrasqueira O Franquinho, with reasonable Portuguese food.

Vorab zum Verständnis:
Die Wohnung bietet 3 Zimmer. Ein Zimmer davon ist außerhalb der Wohnung. Man muss durch die Küche auf die "Terasse" gehen und dort ist dann der Zugang zum zusätzlichen Zimmer. Jedes Zimmer hat ein eigenes zugewiesenes Bad. Die Küche teilen sich alle. Man ist also maximal zu 6. in der Unterkunft.
Pro:
Eine S-Bahn-Station ist super nah an der Unterkunft. Man braucht nur ca 15min ins Zentrum. Abfahrten sind sehr regelmäßig, auch am Sonntag.
In der Küche gibt es eine Waschmaschine und man hat ein eigenes Bad für sich, das man abschließen kann. Genauso wie das eigene Zimmer. Ein Bügelbrett mit Bügeleisen steht ebenfalls zur Verfügung. Im Kühlschrank ist genug Platz. Der Kleiderschrank bietet auch viel Stauraum. Und es gibt Rollos.
Contra:
Die Unterkunft liegt leider an einer viel befahrenen Straße und die Zugschienen der S-Bahn verlaufen parallel. Nachts war es nicht möglich, mit offenem Fenster zu schlafen - es war einfach zu laut. Allerdings war es durch das geschlossene Fenster dann zu warm. Wenn man das Fenster auf hat, macht die Tür bei jedem Auto, das vorbei fährt, Geräusche durch den "Zugwind" der entsteht.
Die Sauberkeit der Unterkunft war grundsätzlich gut, aber es gab Schimmel. Zum Beispiel im Bad an der Badewanne oder am Spiegel und im Besteckkasten der Spülmaschine.
Der Duschkopf blieb nicht aufrecht oben in der Verankerung, man muss sich manuell damit abduschen und der Klodeckel war locker.
