My husband and I taught a month-long writing workshop in Lisbon. This apartment was a fantstic space for our family. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the hosts beautifully arranged the space to accomodate our small children--there was a crib, high chair, and baby gate at the top of the stairs. Praca Flores, about 3 blocks away, is a square of lovely restaurants around a small playground and a goldfish-filled fountain. The neighbors are friendly, and Malfada has compiled a notebook of wonderful advice for making the most of the city. Our work required us to attend lectures on opposite ends of the main part of the city. We could walk to every event from this apartment. When we went out with the kids, it was only a block to the Tram 28 stop. Perfect location!
