I was not satisfied with my stay. During the last 12 days of my stay there was no hot water in the house. It was not fixed before I left, and there was basically no communication (I always had to ask for updates myself), no apology, no offer of a refund. I think the house could be well-run and a nice option, but there is a complete lack of organization and communication and interest in taking care of the guests, so all in all I cannot recommend this place.

Average experience, surely way too expensive for what is given. More than €800 for a room in a shared apartment with 3 other people, with just one bathroom, 30 minutes away from the city centre (by public transport), is not worth it. Additionally, the kitchen is cluttered with unnecessary junk that should be stored elsewhere. With "junk" I mean piles of wooden panels stored even under the kitchen table. The pictures in the listing, obviously, do not show that. As for the check-in, the owner wasn't there, which is totally fine, but what isn't is that the person she charged with handing me the keys came two hours late, never answered my phone calls and showed me my room still messy. Clearly, not everything is bad; the room was well equipped with furniture and comfortable. The owner recently replaced the old kitchen furniture; now the fridge is bigger and has freezer storage for everybody. The neighbourhood isn't touristy at all, so no noise during the night and quite well equipped with supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries and a swimming pool nearby.

Good location. Good host - very responsive. Apartment in 4th floor w/o lift and not having dishwasher were the only downsides

The apartment is in an old and dilapidated building, and some of the home appliances are new. The washing machine didn't work from the beginning (flooding, interrupting mid-cycle), and it wasn't easy to communicate with the host, but in the end, we agreed on a rent discount for compensation. The house strongly smells of acrylic paint and old wood from the doors, and also the bathroom often had a bad odour coming from the sewers. Ok for the good position and for a few-day stays, but I wouldn't recommend it for longer stays.

The room was quite big, the kitchen had a steamer, mixer, quite big fridge, but unfortunately no oven, which may be problematic with longer stays. The shared bathroom was great, but the private shower was a little bit moldy. I really enjoyed the balcony view. Unfortunately, the host gave me the most uncomfortable housing experience in my life. At first, he was very helpful, he showed me around, even prepared food for me. This behaviour ended when he started being touchy and I declined his two propositions of intimate relationship. He did not let me have a guest in my room for three days, even if, according to the lease, that was my right. When I left the apartment for a week to visit my family, he messaged me wanting to end our contract through flatio, he wanted me to pay him rent in cash instead. When I did not respond to the messages, he kept sending me three to four harmful and unrespectful messages a day; “You dont deserve it. No relationship professional or anything. I will be just waiting the last day for you to leave from my apartment”; “And why do you stay your maximum as one more month anyway!? Dont you have any self respect and self value!” -that’s just an example of texts he sent me. After that, he messaged me saying that I have to move out in three days or he will search through my room with the police. Finally, when I was leaving that place, he threatened me that, if I left him a negative comment on Flatio, he would go to immigration office and report that I stole his address for my residence permit application (in the end, I did not use this adress). I would like to highlight that his only reason for that behaviour was me not responding to his proposition, which seems a little extreme. Throughout my stay there the host went from adoring me to hatred and complete disrespect towards me. I would not recommend staying there under any circumstances.

Dissapointing behavior from the apartment’s owner: Due to a personal situation we rented the apartment at Calle Horno for an indefinite period and made our situation clear to Encarni, the house owner, from the start. She told us repetitive times that “we could count on renting the apartament for as much time as we needed” and we took her word for it. After having rented the apartament for various months - and having been responsible and respectful tenants, we received a 17 days notice from her behalf telling us that we should leave the apartment. This message took us by surprise since it was the opposite of what she had previously communicated to us, and it of course created many problems for us given the short time notice. We paid each and every rent on time, took good care of the apartment and premises, followed all house and coexistence rules to the letter. Thus, it is needless to say that we were treated unfairly by the house owner and that her actions were not only cruel, but also inhumane. We would have expected at least a one-month’s notice. Other than this it is worth mentioning that the apartment is in a reasonable condition. The village is around 25 minutes from Granada by bus and the bus comes almost every hour (but not every hour), except on Sundays when the bus only comes around 3 times. There are no supermarkets/shops in the village, you can just find two restaurants - one that opens most days in the week and another one that opens like once a week. Therefore, if you are looking for convenience, this is not the best option. Dúdar is nice with its mountain views and the river passing by, and the locals are mostly friendly. The house’s neighbor is not the friendly-est though. He complained a few times about “noise” coming from our TV (although it was being played at a normal volume), and he also complained a few times about the kids who used to play in front of the house - also because of the “noise” they used to make. He even threw a few eggs at them once…

room was really small but the owner was fine.

The flat is spacious and is in a really nice location. However, the flat is not well kept and it was increadibly dirty when I moved in. The landlords expected me to clean the mess of other flatmates and was rude to me when I moved out. To note I left the appartment in better condition then when I arrived, so for me its unclear why they wanted put the responsability of the space messiness on me. So in general if you are looking for an affordable, central place for a short term I can recommend you staying there. Just be expected to lower your standards of cleaniness and support from the landlord.

The apartment is in a perfect location. It would be nice to have a vacuum cleaner in the apartment. If the kitchen had been a little more equipped, the apartment would have been excellent.

We had some problems with the beds. Everything was solved the day after, but the reaction of the staff (not the reception and the cleaning group) was not the best.

Kurz vor Einzug wurde mir mitgeteilt, dass es kein Internet gibt – obwohl in der Anzeige WiFi angegeben war. Stattdessen stand nur ein mobiler Router mit SIM-Karte bereit, den ich selbst installieren musste. Die Verbindung war instabil und musste regelmäßig neu gestartet werden. Bettwäsche und Handtücher waren nicht gereinigt, was zu einer schlechten ersten Nacht und einer Hautreaktion führte. Viele Fenster ließen sich kaum öffnen, eines gar nicht schließen. In der Küche fehlten grundlegende Dinge, Fernseher und Kamin funktionierten nicht. Keine Ansprechperson vor Ort. Ich würde diese Unterkunft aus diesem Grund nicht noch einmal buchen.

The flat was as described. The host was a nightmare to get a hold.

Der Service und die Kommunikation mit der vermietenden Agentur und den beiden Mitarbeitenden Claire und Ioannis waren ausgezeichnet. Ich konnte mich rund um die Uhr per WhatsApp melden und erhielt sehr schnell und sehr freundlich Rückmeldung. Der Check-in und der Check-out liefen reibungslos per Schlüsselcode-Box. Es wurde mir sogar ein etwas früherer Check-in ermöglicht. Bei der Sauberkeit und der Übereinstimmung der Wohnung mit den inserierten Fotos gab es jedoch deutliche Unterschiede: insgesamt präsentiert sich die Wohnung deutlich abgelebter als es der frisch renovierte Zustand auf den Fotos vermuten lässt und entspricht bezogen auf die Sauberkeit nicht unbedingt dem nordeuropäischen Standard. Einige Bereiche wie z.B. der Backofen, die Fußleisten, einige Schränke, der Großteil der Türen und eine Jalousie waren stark verschmutzt, sehr abgenutzt oder so beschädigt, dass eine Nutzung nicht oder nur teilweise möglich war. Der Laminatboden war an einigen Stellen aufgequollen. Andere Bereiche wie z.B. der Kühlschrank, die Bettlaken, Handtücher und die Toilette fand ich sauber vor. Aufgrund meiner Hausstauballergie hatte ich allerdings etwas zu kämpfen und konnte nicht ohne mein Spray in der Wohnung übernachten. Der angegebene Trockner (Dryer) entpuppte sich als leicht verrosteter Wäscheständer, der mit einer Plastiktüte notdürftig an einem Geländer festgebunden war. Der Balkon zur Straße hinaus ist dagegen sehr schön angelegt und lädt zum Entspannen ein. Warmwasser muss aktiv beim Bezug eingeschaltet werden und es dauert dann 20 Minuten, bis es nutzbar ist. Ggf. wäre es hier etwas gastfreundlicher, wenn das Putzteam dies vorab schon mit der Grundreinigung einschalten könnte. Die Lage der Wohnung ist dagegen sehr positiv hervorzuheben. Die Nachbarschaft ist sehr ruhig, die Schlafräume sind zum Innenhof hin ausgerichtet. Eine Vielzahl von Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants ist im unmittelbaren Umfeld der Wohnung zu finden. Die Busstation Galaxias befindet sich nur 3 Gehminuten entfernt (an dieser hält auch der Expressbus zum Flughafen). Die Metrostation Ambelokipi liegt ca. 11 Gehminuten entfernt. Es sind nur 3 Stationen bis zum Zentrum Syntagma.

The apartment was not bad, but for the price for month it was not good and not in a good neighborhood. The bathroom was moldy and not clean. The beds were okay but not something you would want to stay longer than week.

Overall, the stay was okay. It was centrally located right above a supermarket which was great. The host was communicative majority of the time and was kind enough to accommodate a late check-out for us. However, the stay lacked the love and attention which I’ve come to appreciate in home stays. For example, it was listed to have washing machine, but there was barely enough detergent for one load. So we restocked it for her. We stayed almost a week with 3 guests noted and there were only two rolls of toilet paper provided, no paper towel, no shower essentials etc. so we also restocked all of that. One of the bedrooms and the main living room had no lightbulbs, so we often sat in poorly lit rooms at night. Also, the cleaning agent that was used upon our arrival was SO strong, it made a couple of us super nauseous the first night (I don’t fault the owner for this, but it could be nice to use less toxic cleaning supplies moving forward). Overall, grateful for the location but also it is important to know that there were a lot of homeless people/ drug users in the area which made us feel slightly uncomfortable at some points as they actively followed us and yelled in the streets at different points in the trip.

Nice neighbourhood and appartement is fine, but nightmare landlord. Completely irresponsive prior to moving in. Didn't pay the gas bill on time leaving us without hot water or a stove for a month. Then the following month she asks for a 5000 czk rent increase, so I had to move out much earlier than I expected. Nice flatmates though.

The house was nice on the surface but needed some serious renovations. For the lack of better words the place was disintegrating. With some simple renovations the place would have been excellent. The owner said he would fix the things that were lacking, though, so if they are fixed the place is excellent. The bedroom mattress and a bug problem were the main concerns for us among smaller issues. The area is lovely. When we first arrived we thought the area looks desolate but after a couple of days (and even the same evening) we found that no, there's plenty of life and restaurants and small shops even. There's a farmers market once a week which I definitely recommend going to. Super nice food and super nice people. There's a really nice beach just a short walk away as well which was awesome. Also the pictures don't do the place justice - The view was stunning. Gorgeous. I loved to watch the sea and mountains. Also the place itself looks more open and bigger and there's waaaaaay more light than in the pictures. The owner was really nice. My wife would have given 4/10 but I decided to give it a 5/10.

In this building every floor has his special treatment overall I enjoyed my stay meet different cultures different peoples some rooms has to be renewed I enjoyed mostly 1 week on floor 3 vip thanks for people who assigned me there the receptionist are nice has good and faste service. Thank you all

Celkově pokoj byl pěkný, čistý a nový, kdyby normálně fungovala klimatizace a výtah, a nebylo by tak rušno přes noc, tak hodnotila bych ubytování na 9.

We stayed for one month in the apartment. It was a big and nice apartment in a great location (right in the center of Alfama, only a few minutes walk from amazing viewpoints over Lisbon, bars, and restaurants). Diana was very nice and helpful in communication. One time, we had a problem with the WiFi, and Diana arranged a technician to come quickly to fix the issue. However, and I'm aware this has nothing to do with Diana or the apartment itself, we had several big cockroaches during the whole stay (every few days) and a lot of baby cockroaches (almost every day) in the apartment's bathroom and kitchen area. Besides that, we enjoyed our stay.

During the European Heatwave of June 2025, we were torn between keeping the windows open to let the air in (which includes the stench of garbage and piss from the streets below). There are many vagrants smoking crack, weed, and cigarettes right below the balcony and bedroom windows. In the listing, it says "mobile airconditioner" but it is just a standard desk fan in addition to the two wall mounted fans. Needless to say, it was extremely hot in the apartment both in the day and night times. Other than that, it was a decent apartment if you can get over these things.

The place was dirty upon arrival and needed to be cleaned (washing dirty sheets, trash under furniture etc.) black mold can be found in multiple places (mattress, bathroom, kitchenette). The kitchenette is sufficient for small-scale cooking, but is missing some crucial items (butter knives etc). The appartment itself though is pretty good - decently sized, with little traffic noice, stays cool during the summer, smells nice, has a great shower and includes two TVs. The host communicates well.

The host responded to all our reports of problems or inquiries very fast. However some problem could not be fixed while renters were at the property, especially plumbing problems in and around the bathroom. There was a strong odor coming from the drain pipes.
