I loved my stay in Lisbon - Maria's apartment was perfect! It was clean, spacious and very well located, with an easy walk to the metro station. The Alfama neighbourhood is a perfect place to wander and get lost, with interesting shops and restaurants at every turn. Communication with Maria was easy, with prompt replies. She met me at the apartment, showed me around, and handed me an umbrella for the rain. My only suggestion is that guests should use a flashlight as they walk up and down the stairs (I used the flashlight app on my phone) as it is fairly dark for part of it. I think I've fallen in love with Portugal. Thanks Maria!
