Good:
Nicely renovated and very comfortable apartment in the heart of historic Evora. Very close to restaurants, shops etc - including a top-notch restaurant within 20 meters. The apartment is very well equipped, including a washing machine. Cute roof-top deck with a clothes line for washing. Excellent wifi and selection of TV channels.
Not so good:
• As with many VRBOs, getting the key to the property was a frustrating experience. We made arrangements with the property contact to meet at a specific time but he didn't show up. Finally contacted him via cell phone and he said to pick up the key at a coffee shop "at the end of the street" but not until two hours after the agreed meeting time.
• As noted, the apartment was very comfortable and well furnished. However, the bathroom was very small and crowded - to the point where someone of above average size would probably have problems using the facilities and especially the shower. And the "Do not flush toilet paper" sign in the bathroom should be highlighted in the property details!
