We have just arrive back from a wonderful week at Carla’s place. It is in the absolute perfect location to see the whole city from on foot.
The main train station/ferry Cais de Sodré is only a 15min walk away (which we personally used to get to the Nos Alive festival, and day trip to the beach). We walked around the whole city to see the sights but it is also close to tram and bus stops if you’d prefer to get around the city this way.
The apartment is one of the best stocked Air BnB’s I’ve stayed in! The bathroom has plenty of spares if you have forgotten anything (we bought supplies but left what we didn’t use as a way to pay it forward to future guests), plus a first aid kit and towels. The kitchen has plenty of utensils, pots/pans, coffee pot and toastie maker. Again there are a few spares in the cupboard (tea, coffee, olive oil etc) but we also left tea and coffee we bought for future guests. There is a shop around the corner so can get everything you need for your stay (bread, meats, fresh fruit/veg) very easily.
For those who enjoy a lie in please note the apartment is located in a residential area so there will be some small noise as people move around for work etc every morning. But closing the window and shutters is excellent at blocking out any noise and it didn’t cause us any nuisance at all.
Carla is an excellent host. She checked we were happy with everything and enjoying the city early into our stay, and responded to any questions we had very quickly. I would highly recommend this apartment for anyone visiting Lisbon and wanting a home away from home. I hope you enjoy as much as we did!
