We arrived at Diego + Debbie's in the wee hours of Saturday morning after a night train from Madrid! Bathed in sunshine, we fell instantly in love with the apartment. The space is light + breezy with playful, well-chosen art... the face of the bull in their living room will break your heart! We shared the flat with my parents who were visiting from New Zealand, four of us in total but surprisingly, and to everyone's relief, it never felt cramped. There is a sunny rear balcony for afternoon G+Ts, a separate study/office, and ample bedrooms to retreat to. Very well-located on border of Lapa and Madragoa neighbourhoods, much quieter nights than you'll find in the centre which suited us perfectly... we were woken by birds in the morning but it was only ever a 15 minute stroll over/up to Barrio Alto or Principe Real districts, or straight up the hill to Estrella to the locals' Mercado de Campo de Ourique - good for working up a healthy thirst! Thanks to Joanna for her intro + local tips... Lisbon, you were wonderful. Thanks + all the best D+D x
