We had a wonderful stay in the apartment. The space was great, views were amazing from the balcony, and there was ample room for our family of 5 (adults) to have privacy but also to gather in many spaces in the apartment. The location was ideal -- close to everything including the great overlook just a block away (up a hill of course!). While the apartment was on the top floor and meant climbing several flights of steps, the journey was worth it, as the space was large, clean, well laid out, and nicely decorated. The mini market across the street was well stocked and we could buy anything we needed there --including wine, beer, snacks, breakfast items, etc. The one downside was there was construction taking place across the street from the unit while we were there which was noisy each morning (not on weekends). My husband had earplugs in his travel case and we made use of them which helped the noise in the front bedroom. But most days we were up early anyway to get out and tour the city and it was a minor inconvenience. Communication with the hosts was easy and when we had a question, they responded quickly. It would have been helpful to have a few more towels and to have some basic supplies (dish soap, paper towels etc.) but we were able to get items at the mini mart. General directions on how things work like the stove and washing machine would also have been helpful (stovetop operation was not very user friendly) but again the host was responsive when we asked. But those are minor issues--overall our family had a great experience and would definitely rent the space again if we were to come back to Lisbon. We had a wonderful experience in Lisbon and the apartment was one of the highlights. Highly recommend!!
