Staying at Claudio's apartment was one of the best decision I've ever taken having in mind that this was the first time for my wife & me ever of not being accommodated in a hotel and it contributed 100% to our amazing weekend in Lisbon . We arrived closed to midnight but still we received a very warm welcome by our host Maria and in addition to that she organized all by her own the best birthday ever for my wife on the very next day. The apartment and the building itself are fully renovated, located in a very nice and calm area of the historical part of Lisbon only a few minutes away from the metro, Bairo Alto and all other well known places you might consider to visit during your stay. Due to the big windows at the back of the apartment one could enjoy a fantastic view from both the bathroom and the bedroom on the sea side. So once again, many thanks to Claudio & Maria for their kind hospitality and support throughout the entire stay of ours!
