Pedro was very friendly and easy to get along with and welcomed us to make ourselves at home in his lovely apartment, which is very quirky and unique just as the photos show. It was easy to arrange the check-in time and he very kindly let us leave our bags after vacating the room, as we had a late travel connection that afternoon. We had our own keys and privacy in the room. Everything was as we had hoped for. The location of Pedro's home is perfect, very near to the metro and walking distance to bars and restaurants - there's an amazing place to eat just next door! - but its also quiet enough to sleep well (we were at the back of the building). Because the apartment is on the top floor there are a lot of stairs, but Lisbon is also very hilly so you will get used to this if you do a lot of walking like we did!
