I found the location to be really great and it was a beautiful space however, the A/C worked but wasn’t too efficient and it was over 40 degrees (104 F) during my stay which was the main reason I booked this apt. Also, the responses were quite slow and I wasn’t able to get through via telephone either. During one part of my stay, someone knocked on the door. Being alone, I did not answer and they proceeded to unlock the apartment with a key. I found it frightening and intrusive as I was alone in the apartment. They told me they were there to clean via google translate I tried to explain I had one more day in the apartment and they insisted on coming in to clean anyway. It was really awkward and uncomfortable as I wasn’t ever notified this may happen. It wouldn’t have been such a big deal if it had been communicated.
Overall, I really enjoyed the location and the stylish space however I think they’re can be some improvement with communication here. They did provide a bottle of local wine which was a really great touch so I appreciated that during the all the confusion. I would definitely give this place another shot despite a few mix ups, if I were to travel to Lisboa again. It’s a friendly neighborhood and beautiful, spacious location! Thank you!
