S. May 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Séjour à Vila de Gaia Bon emplacement, à 5-10 minutes en voiture des centres d'intérêt. Excellent accueil de la gérante. Toutefois, sur les lieux, l'hébergement n'était pas conforme à l'annonce qui lisait 4 chambres et 3 salles de bain. Nous avons communiqué avec le propriétaire (à l'extérieur du pays) qui nous a informé d'un dégât d'eau datant de 6 mois qui condamnait 1 chambre avec salle de bain. En aucun moment, il nous a informé de la situation et n'avait pas modifié son annonce. Après discussion, nous en sommes venus à une entente compensatoire et l'annonce a été ensuite retirée du site. ##### S.E. S. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### HAKIM B.
