Gardênia’s place is sparkly clean and cosy - it felt just like leaving at home. What’s amazing about her house is that its near to the various attractions in Lisboa; what’s even more amazing, is that her place is right smack in a quintessential Lisbon neighborhood, which means that you get to experience living like a local.
I’ve written so much about Gardênia’s place; however, one most important thing remains to be written about: her hospitality. Even though Gardênia was away when I lived at hers, she had her friend Tuane welcome me with the same warmth that she has always showed to me in her messages. Throughout my trip, Gardênia messaged me to ensure that I was happy. When I needed some advice on where to visit, what to buy and where to eat, Gardênia was at hand.
What more, really, can anyone ask of an air bnb host? If anyone can find a better air bnb host than her, I’ll gladly eat my hat.
