Pros:
- Milú was lovely and went above and beyond to accommodate us! (last-minute reservation change and early check-in)
- The location is very convenient for exploring the city on foot.
- The place is well-furnished and nicely decorated.
- 2 separate but connectable small bed rooms.
Cons:
- The Internet was generally good but had regular hiccups during video calls. (We spent a week of coworking here, so this wasn’t ideal for us.)
- The advertised “external yard” is actually a small courtyard that is enclosed by the apartment on three sides, plus a solid wall on the fourth. All around are 1-2 more floors, so the only view of the outside world - “is it sunny?” - was the sky and airplanes passing above. Spending the whole working day in the apartment and courtyard, we felt uncomfortably enclosed/“trapped inside” for us.
- The place was quite humid. Our laundry did not dry for 2+ days, despite sunny and warm T-shirt-wearing weather. Our shower towels barely dried, despite leaving the ventilation running for hours.
- There was construction during day time. But in Lisbon, where isn’t there construction… ;)
In summary, I would not come back for longer stays, but the location and equipment make this a decent option for a shorter stay if you’re looking for a base to explore the city.
