We stayed at Mariana's place for four nights and it was a great experience. Her place is on the second floor (steps only), so the room has a fantastic view out over the city, especially when it is lit up at night. The building is situated right next to the famous 'Ascensor do Lavra' funicular tram, but it does not run at night so we had no problems with noise. The room was bright and perfect for a couple.

Mariana was a great host - she encouraged us to treat her apartment as our own and was happy to chat and share suggestions about the city. She even helped us book a taxi to the airport. Lovely host, great location, nice apartment - recommended!
