I had a great stay at Lincoln and Cameron’s place. From the start, they were great at communicating. Fast replies, always helpful. They let me drop off my luggage early and also helped as I was planning my trip from home. Every time I had a question- they were there to answer it. I met Lincoln when dropping off my luggage and he was so friendly and positive. Just gave good vibes from the start. The studio is so cute! Personal touches made it seem bright and welcoming. It was very clean and is what I needed for a short stay. Bed is comfortable, shower has plenty of hot water and they have Netflix and a smart TV. It’s always nice when travelling to wind down at night watching something you understand on TV :). I didn’t use the kitchen but it was well equipped. They provided a portable heater as it was a bit colder when I arrived in Lisbon.
It’s a great location, walkable to almost anywhere and it’s so nice to stay in Alfama and get a real feel of old town. It’s also an inexpensive Uber ride from the airport. With that said, it is noisy. I was there on a weekend so expect noise. You’re in the middle of the action so plan for it. I arrived back pretty late every night and I also sleep late so it didn’t bother me but if you’re a light sleeper or sleep early then plan accordingly. The power went off when I was there the first night because I had plugged in a few things and it’s an older building. These things happen, what mattered most was Cameron answered my messages in the middle of the night and coached me through the scenario and Lincoln came the next day with a new heater and tested everything while I was out to make sure it didn’t happen again. It’s just so nice to have support when uncontrollable things happen. I feel they are the ones that make this place. I travel a lot and they are some of the best Air BNBs hosts I’ve encountered! Thanks so much for allowing me to stay in your place Lincoln and Cameron! Hope to be back again soon!
