This guesthouse has an excellent location, walkable to sights, shops, and restaurants. The well organized kitchen is great and the room generally comfortable. However, we had no idea Rua de Madalena was such a Main Street, and it was NOISY - even with windows and shutters closed. Not easy to sleep. Additionally, like many places in old buildings, they request that toilet paper is placed in a garbage can rather than the toilet. The problem is that this gets stinky. We asked for the garbage to be removed and were told that it would only be done every second day. But despite our request, it did not happen at all during our 3-day stay. Not okay! We saw cleaning staff in the building every day and were very disappointed that they didn’t take 2 minutes to empty our garbage. We would not go back to this guesthouse despite its excellent location and lovely kitchen.
