We stayed in Lisbon over NYE so everything was fully booked. Luckily we‘ve found Ana‘s apartment in the cool area of Intendente. The area seems to be an upcoming in-spot, is full of bars and restaurants and you can easily walk into the old city within 10-15min.
The flat looks exactly as on the images. Just the sun never came into the apartment which is probably due to winter time.
Ana wasn’t there but Paula checked us in at a very late time (thanks :)) and gave us tons of tips.
We felt very welcome but anyway some things you might need to know:
- We had some problems with the washing machine, as it ran out. Paula answered immediately and I think this will be fixed for the next one and was also due to the new installation. It was great that we could use a washing machine, as we came from another travel!
- We had one cockroach in the apartment the first evening. It felt like there hasn’t been guest for some days and this is no ones fault. Paula brought us insecticide directly the next morning, but this also didn’t happen again. If you are not comfortable with such things, a hotel is maybe better for you, as this is kind of normal in Lisbon I guess.
- Kitchen was well equipped for 3 people (even a sandwich maker, toaster, water boiler).
- Due to winter the flat was chilly and very humid. But there was a new kind of heater installed (not on the images) what helped. But you should know, that it takes long to get something dry.
- Netflix was great for rainy evenings :)
- walls are very thin. It sounded like the people above our flat moved there furniture 5 hours a day. This stoped later in the evening, so was fine.
- Counterpart the flat there seems to be a kind of party place. Maybe this is just a flat where they have celebrated pre-pre-NYE and the days after ;)
This is a very neutral view on the flat. We liked it there anyway and I would also recommend it. I just wanted to shout this out, as some people might be sensitive about such things.
Thanks for having us!
