Patricia and Pedro were the perfect hosts and made our whole experience seamless, it is no surprise why they are super-hosts!
Their apartment is beautiful and in such a great location to experience everything which Lisbon has to offer. I personally enjoyed staying in the district of Alfama, because it is stunning and quirky with its windy streets. It also has a really local and cultural feel to it which was a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the touristic sites. Although there is no car access to the apartment, it is within walking distance of many of the landmarks you would wish to visit as a tourist. We arrived from the airport via a taxi which dropped us at the bottom of the hill, on which the apartment is situated (Patricia and Pedro sent the closest address to the apartment where a car can get to). It was only a short uphill walk to the apartment which was made easier to find with a map Patricia and Pedro sent us with the route drawn on.
The apartment was immaculate when we arrived and spacious enough for myself and my boyfriend. We were left a couple of bottles of wine upon arrival, which I thought was a lovely touch. The bed was comfortable so we slept very well. The showers in the apartment were in good order and we were provided with shower gel and moisturiser just like in a hotel. We didn't cook anything in the apartment but the kitchen facilities were clean and looked to be just what you would need whilst away.
Patricia and Pedro were not in when we arrived, but the information we received before arriving gave very clear instructions about how to check in and access the apartment. As we had quite an early flight and arrived early, they allowed us to check in earlier than the normal 2pm check-in time, which was extremely helpful and kind of them, and we really appreciated not having to carry our bags around for ages!
Patricia and Pedro sent me loads of local information prior to arriving which ranged from restaurant recommendations, landmarks to visit, bars and nightclubs to go to, and transportation. They even offered to arrange airport transfers and book tours if we wanted, which I thought was a very nice touch. We visited two of the restaurants they recommended and we were definitely not disappointed, the food was fantastic. Their response to questions and queries is extremely quick.
We would thoroughly recommend this beautiful apartment!! We will most definitely be visiting Lisbon again soon and we would definitely stay here again.
Thank you Patricia and Pedro.
