Rafael, Veras son, gave us a warm welcome and showed us the flat. He knows a lot about Lisboa and could recommend you nice places to visit and to eat cheap but very delicious foot. The apartement offers everythging you need, but it has more an hostel character than sharing a flat with local people. But the common room offers you a simple possibility to get in contact with the other guests. The apartement is in a lively surrounding and close to the centre, so it gets sometimes a bit louder in the night. Earplugs are a benefit in this case. But all in all we would recommend this place for people who wants to discouver the city. Thanks Vera and Rafael for beeing your guests.
