My only regret is that I booked Pedro’s place for just 2 nights! This is seriously the best place to start your stay in Lisboa. The views, the location, the loft, the space, the ambiance, the decor, the little touches (the chocolates, pastels, oranges, the wine, the toiletries), the welcoming note from the team, their kindness and hospitality, responsiveness and excellent communication - all this and more makes this place a 10 out of 10!
Did I forget to mention the heavenly scent of orange blossoms in the air, the view of the river, light streaming in from all the windows (but with shades and drapes to darken the rooms as well), the heated windows, the calming soothing color palette of the rooms, the floor to ceiling windows which offer great views of Lisboa rooftops (I am seriously obsessed with the windows)! Even the cute little window in the bathroom!
The convenience of an ATM, a wine shop, a Mercado, a hair salon, and the best little neighborhood bar (Bica Sour) across the street, all a stone’s throw away. And restaurants and bars and cafes within a short walk - literally on the same block!
But don’t be misled by the proximity of these establishments - the neighborhood is purely residential not commercial. It is old with every modern convenience. It is quiet, charming, cozy and full of character!
I could go on and on but will stop here to say, go to Lisboa and book this place if it’s available - grab it! You will love it. You will only regret not staying longer.
P.S. I ate fresh, sweet, oranges for breakfast, the pastels for a snack, and the chocolates at turn down! But alas! I forgot all about the wine bottle they kindly gifted me upon arrival! That’s how drunk With happiness I was during my stay here that I literally forgot to drink the free wine! 😂
Thank you, Antonio and Rui - for the early check
In, late check out, carrying my suitcase up, four flights of stairs, coming back to the apartment in the rain to help me when I couldn’t open the front door (no fault of the door’s - I just did not juggle the key enough, silly me). Thanks also to the cleaning crew who kindly carried my bags down those same four flights when I was checking out
From start to finish, my stay was perfect! The management team truly went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and memorable. Can’t wait to come back! And bring my family.
P.S.S. I forgot to mention the place has a wifi hotspot you can take with you on the go and a Mac that you can use. I was actually working 8 hours a day during my stay here, btw. There’s a desk that is set up as a work at home spot. And a fully equipped kitchen if you want to cook. And a washer. And central heating. And air conditioning. Plenty of hot water in he shower. A hair dryer. A Nepresso coffee maker. And coffee pods (stating the obvious here). And tea bags. And orange jam. Just bring your own bread.😆
I’d better stop now. And see when I can book this place again!
