We stayed a family of five in Isabels Carpe Diem apartment and we had a wonderful time.
Isabel was a perfect host. She answered all our mails and questions, let us enter the apartment one hour earlier and recomended us a nice place to have lunch, as we arrived early by plane.
The apartment was very nice, clean and cosy. Everything we needed was there. Isabel even left us a bottle of cold water and a bottle of white wine in the fridge :-)
We slept in the very nice bedroom. Our children slept in the living room on the sofa-bed and in the dining room on the sofa there. This worked just fine for us, but if you are five adults, the sofas might be a bit short.
We liked the neighbourhood. The apartment is situated in a residential area. You have small local restaurants and a kebab just around the corner and a nice supermarket two minutes away. Isabel told us the way to the supermarked when we arrived.
If you are into gourmet food, we would recomend the restaurant "A Travessa", situated only 500 meters from Isabels apartment. You can walk there. We had the most wonderful meal there.
It is easy to reach the city center by tram 28. It stops 100 meters from the apartment. You can also walk (10-15 min) to Cais do Sodre. From this station you can go whereever you want by metro, bus, tram or train.
Lisboa is a wonderful city with a lot to see and experience. We felt very safe in the city and had no problems getting around with our children.
We would definitely recomend the Carpe Diem apartmet. Isabel was very friendly and made us feel welcome right away. Thank you so much Isabel :-)
Next time we come to Lisboa, we will definitely stay with you again.
