We recently stayed at Rita's place for a month Feb-March 2023. Upon arrival the place was extremely cold inside, so we lit the propane tank hoping to keep warm. The tank ran out and Rita replaced it with my suggestion of (2) tanks, which she provided. The place would never get warm and after inspection I noticed a gap in the windows seal, which I filled with Diapers. This seemed to make the stay more bearable, but the walls stayed sweating and dripping. The power goes out a lot. You can't cook and wash at the same time.
We enjoyed the area a lot and if we moved to Lisbon we would suggest the Ajuda area. It's close to parks, food, and groceries. We felt safe in the area and the natives we helpful if needed.
Pros:
Rita is very responsive and will try to make things right
Great location
Cons:
Sweaty walls
Black Mold
Air is Damp (We could visibly see fog when breathing)
No Refund if dissatisfied
Cold during winter
Bad Electrical service
