The listing look exactly like the pictures. It’s a beautiful place and clean. The host was very quick with responses on WhatsApp. The neighborhood (intendente) is a pretty awesome place with great things nearby (A vida Portuguesa is an amazing shop for souvenirs that is a block away and the famous restaurant Ramiro is also in that same block). They were flexible with our check out time when our flight was delayed 2 hours. However there are some things to be aware of if you are considering this listing:
1. There is a luggage storage fee.
They have a very narrow check in window. Our flight landed at 8:30am but we could not check in until 1:30pm (which was their most flexible time from their usual 3:30 check in). The host said we could store our luggage at their offices for a fee of five euros per person (the offices are not within walking distance, about 3 metro stops away. Also you essentially can’t walk Lisbon streets dragging luggage with you because of how narrow and pebbly the streets are). So you have to factor that financial and travel time cost before you check in, especially if you are flying in from the US where all flights to Europe are red eye flights.
2. The walls and ceilings are very thin.
You can hear everything. If you are a light sleeper, please take note of this. You can hear footsteps above you and conversations right outside from the terrace or the hallway.
