Host and home-
Cláudia is a SUPERB host! It is a delight to be in her presence and staying in her impeccable home. She is a caring host recommending not only the standard sights, but also the hidden places, where you can find Lisbon‘s authentic vibes.
The apartment is part of a well-preserved and well-maintained historical building. It is filled with thoughtful extra touches and everything one needs as a traveler. It is more beautiful than the photos and spacious than I expected. Clean, quiet, functional, tastefully decorated, lots of natural light, well-equipped, private and fast & reliable internet for remote work. I felt at home and relaxed throughout the entire time and had a hard time leaving each day because I enjoyed staying there so much. I can’t wait to be back.
Location and attractions-
The apartment is located in the center of Graça, known for its amazing views, vibrant life and historic and characteristic feeling. Two of Lisbon's most popular viewpoints are located in this neighborhood and both offer panoramic views of Lisbon, the Tagus River and the São Jorge Castle. Lots of nice local restaurants and cafes plus, buses and the famous tram 28E are just around the corner to explore the rest of Lisbon.
Claudia owns and runs an art lounge, "Camones - Artes Bar" that promotes local producers and artists. On Tuesdays, they have an open mic that welcomes everyone and make you feel like you belong there. It is a positive energetic place, a total embodiment of all that I love about Lisbon and its people.
I highly recommend Cláudia, her beautiful home and Camones. Personally, I would give 7 stars but I'm only allowed to give 5 maximum. ✨
