First off, the location of this property is wonderful... a short walk to the town center but not noisy. Also, we had a car, and it was relatively easy to park close to the hotel (compared to some other cities in Portugal). We stayed downstairs in a room that could sleep 4 (3 beds) and we were not thrilled with it. It was a bit dark, stuffy, and not very fresh. The service was fantastic though. Susanna met us with a key after hours because we misplaced ours. She also went over a map with us of the area in detail, including surf spots. She was fantastic! I think the upper rooms with more windows are probably brighter and nicer.
