Casa Mitchell Apartments

Me and my wife have been to Portugal a few times now and this place as got to be the best I've ever been to. The apartment was absoultly spotless and in such a quiet and peaceful part of the town but so close to the town centre only a 5 minute walk. Also the pool area only caters for the people that stay in the apartments so there's no waiting or having to go and save one first thing in the morning. Me and my partner thought it was that good we booked again for next year as soon as we got back home .

Just got back from the Casa Mitchell. I booked this as a birthday present for my husbands 60th Birthday as he wanted to try portugal and go self catering for a change. How disappointed were we when we walked I to that 1 bedroom apartment. I paid extra to have that extra space so we could dine in some nights instead of keep going out to eat. Definitely not a 3 star more like 1 star. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Pool area.. very quiet while that is nice, its far to quiet you felt like you had to whisper Instead of chat. Needs some music playing just to take the silence away. Steps to pool are dangerous very very slippy so be careful when using them. Net curtains in bedroom creased to high heaven and torn at the bottom. Metal headboard full of dust. Need towels and toilet paper replenishing every day. Maid service was Monday , Wednesday and Saturday.Far to long to wait to have bins emptied toilet paper and towels replenished. So not every two days like some people state. She arrived way after 4pm Saturday to clean our room we said no. I had just got into the bath wasnt getting back out. We hot some clean towels out of the cupboard next to our room and went and bought toilet paper from the shop. We had took the dirty toilet paper filled bag to the bins at the bottom of the road it was smelling hadn't been emptied since Wednesday, far to long to leave it. Crockery ie mugs chipped and stained with tea or coffee inside. Wooden/plastic type spoon in drawer had food on it that was set hard. Plastic chopping board needs putting in the bin its filthy. Microwave no idea what had happened to it but it was lopsided in the box it sits in so we never used it. hardly used anything in the kitchen. It is far from clean. I don't think anything is checked by management or cleaners when guests leave. Curtains are dirty and missing hooks off the ends. Television smaller than a laptop screen. Waste of time it being there. Lighting.. better light if you struck a match. Arm chairs need covering they are just so dirty. Cars are parked all along the pavement out side so you have to walk in the road and nip inside parked cars to move out of way of traffic.Safe to say we will not be returning to The Casa Mitchell. It really does need an upgrade.

We stayed in these apartments the first week of July. They are in a good location in a quieter part of town but it’s still only about a ten minute walk from the beach and the main square. A few minor points are that the shower door didn’t close properly and the beds were not the most comfortable. We did not have a balcony or terrace attached to the room although we were given keys to a private roof terrace which we didn’t end up using at all. The pool area is clean and there were always plenty of sun loungers. Overall it was good value for money and I would stay here again.
