We spent about a week in Nuno’s apartment in Lisbon and were pleased with the stay. Check-in was very easy despite my late arrival. Nuno emailed me lots of useful info prior to my arrival and was personally waiting at the apartment. Communication with Nuno was easy and his English was flawless. I felt very welcomed upon arrival and even had a bottle of red wine waiting as a welcome gift!
The apartment itself is very stylish as can be seen in the photos. Good use of space and nice design details. A handy kitchenette equipped with a stove, microwave, (no oven), refridgerator with a small freezer box, toaster and Nespresso machine and a decent amount of cookware and dinnerware. Perfect for preparing breakfast. The location was very central right on the boarder of Baixa and Alfama so walking distance to a lot of attractions. Rossio train station is a couple of blocks away and there’s plenty of bus and tram connections right at the square accross the street. Getting to Baixa (tram 15) and Sintra (train from Rossio) was a breeze. Uber works well in Lisbon, too. The room has air conditioning and is pretty well sound-proofed from noise outside even though it’s in a busy area.
Only minor cons: despite good sound-proof from noise outside, there was a lot of noise from neighboring apartments. The walls and floors seem very thin and allow echoing. So pack earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Some wear and tear in the bathroom/shower which Nuno said is going to be taken care of asap.
So all in all a very nice experience in a beautiful and exciting city! Hope to be back soon!
