I recently took a solo trip to Lagos and Lisbon. I traveled into Lisbon via charter bus on a Saturday. Rita and Helder were flexible with my check-in time, and we were in communication leading up to my arrival. I only had access to wi-fi so i had to go to a nearby coffee shop to let them know I arrived. Helder greeted me withn 20 minutes of my arrival.

Helder helped me with my large suitcase up to the apartment. The welcome was friendly and quick, since I let him know this wasn't my first time in Lisbon. Still, he took time to familiarize me with my surroundings, and left a list of recommended places to visit and eat. They left some wine and famous custard tarts for me as a welcome (always a nice touch).

The apartment itself is modern, clean, and bright. I was alone, but could comfortable fit another person, or 2 more people. I liked that there was a washing machine I did one load so I didn't have to pack too much dirty clothes for my trip back. I didn't do any cooking, but I appreciated that there was a coffee machine and microwave. At one point the power went out, but I got in touch with Rita and she told me what to do. Also, there was some loud walking noises from the upstairs apartment and the street-level, but it didn't spoil my stay. The wi-fi connection was strong, which was important for me, since that was my only source of communication.

This apartment is in a great location located walking distance to Chiado and Principe Real (for shopping), Rossio (major train station), and Barrio Alto (bars and restaurants). The street has a bunch of restaurants, and was always lively when I walked out, so I felt safe.

I had a great time in Lisboa, and can't wait to return!
