Communication:
Before our stay Andrea sent us an e-mail with all informations we needed to get around in Lisbon, which was really great in order to plan our stay!
He also left us an iPhone 6 with an internet plan to have internet access all around Lisbon! We didn't actually use it because we used our own phones but it's definitely helpful for people that don't have international internet connection!
Arrival and Check-In:
The Uber from the airport to the apartment was only 12 Euro and took about 20-25 minutes. The instructions to get into the apartment were clear and made the check-in very easy and comfortable!
First Impression of the Apartment:
The apartment has large windows which makes it very bright and is extremely well-equipped and clean!
The interior is very modern and cozy and gives the apartment a sense of home!
Bed rooms:
There are two bed rooms. One with a king sized bed and the other with a single bed. Each rooms has a desk, a chair and wardrobe. Again extremely clean!
Bathroom:
Had a really nice wellness shower and a drawer under the sink with a hairdryer and cleaning agents.
Kitchen:
Very well equipped high-quality kitchen. We cooked at home almost everyday! There are a lot of herbs and olive oil and vinegar that you can use.
Living Room.
The living room has a smart TV with Netflix, Spotify and also Youtube. The WiFi router is also located there and the signal is strong enough for the whole apartment.
The dining table is not huge but perfect for a small group and the couch is comfortable too.
There is also a Lonely Planet guide book for Portugal in English which is really helpful!
Location:
It's a 10 minutes mostly uphill walk to the city centre, but you can also take another route and walk by the ocean. For grocery shopping there is a small supermarket around the corner (3 min walk) and also a few cafes.
The night life of Lisbon like the famous bar street in Bairro Alto is also like a 10-15 minutes walk.
Conclusion:
My best friend and I were really surprised by the quality of this apartment and would 100% comeback and book it again! It's perfect for a group of 3 people or a family with one child. If you want to feel home during your stay, book this apartment! Andrea and his family are very welcoming and always open for questions (also during the stay).
