Joao's house was located in a very convenient part of Lisbon, close to the waterfront, restaurants, bus and tram lines, and to the Bairro Alto district. The air conditioning works well to cool down the place, much needed in this hot city. Joao was very flexible in checking in and out, and has a place to store bags if needed. He also greeted us at the BNB and went through entire apartment with us and explained everything. He is quick to respond to messages through the airbnb app and via phone.
Our only exception was that there was a bit of a musky/damp smell in the apartment, there was mold around the base of the shower, and we did see a couple cockroaches. Though, Joao was very helpful and reassured us that the cockroaches are common in the old Lisbon houses and even offered to stop by to bring products to remove the cockroaches.
