Michael’s place is absolutely fantastic. The apartment itself is stunning and perfectly clean. All amenities worked perfectly throughout. There is a really nice space to hang out in separately from the bedroom and the outside terrace is a really nice touch.
It’s also located really well. It is two doors down from what we thought was the best bar in Lisbon (Foxtrot) and a great Tapas place (Dona Quiteria). It is also just round the corner from a great Gelateria (Nanarella). Bairro Alto is a 10 minute walk and most other things are 10-15 mins. We loved being able to explore our way through the side streets of Lisbon on our way to places. Be warned though - there are some hills en route.
As well as all of this, Michael was a fantastic host. We arrived in Lisbon at a difficult time and had originally planned to leave our luggage in the train station lockers so we could look round the city before check in. The lockers were full however, and Michael was able to meet us at the Flat on short notice and way before check in to let us drop off our bags. He was very gracious about it despite us completely messing him around and we were so grateful for that.
All in all - thank you for a wonderful stay!
