I stayed in Cila's flat for the entire month of April.

This apartment is exactly as described, and was impeccably decorated and thoughtfully outfitted. Not only did it have dishes and some items in the fridge waiting for me, but also small amenities like a new shower sponge. The apartment is in a great location -- Mouraria is changing fast, and it was wonderful to witness some of it firsthand -- and was a wonderful base to walk and get lost all around Lisbon. The neighbours in the building became family for my visit, offering to cook for me, and helping me fish for my socks when I dropped them off the balcony by mistake :)

Cila herself was a true pleasure and has become a friend. She is a warm and lovely person, who truly cares about providing the best experience for her guests. I wanted to come back here after my time in Spain but sadly the flat is already rented out.

Finally, for those who stay here: try the tiny wine bar near the 28 tram stop in Martim Moniz square -- very nice owners, and great baked cheese dish on the menu.
