Ask for a room with a balcony at the back; with the hens and vegetable patches you might be in rural Minho.
Lonely Planet "This dated but cosy family-run place has small, carpeted rooms that represent fair value for the area. It’s close to the gallery and alternative scene along Rua Miguel Bombarda."
