The expectation of this being an Airbnb Plus unfortunately does not match with reality. We were 7 people staying for 4 nights.
Pros:
- Hosts met us for check in
- Location is fantastic
- Place is clean
- Rooms are a good size
- Francisco was open to giving us recommendations for Lisbon and helpful
Cons:
- Disjointed communication; we had to communicate with both Joana and her husband, Francisco.
- I felt it was a bit bizarre that we were only allowed 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom, 4 toilet paper rolls total. We were 7 people staying for 4 nights, so I thought my request for more was pretty reasonable. When we initially requested, the host refused. A day later we asked Joana's husband, Francisco, and he stopped by to drop off 2 rolls. I think toilet paper is a pretty basic amenity.
- Building is really old, pipes are really loud whenever you turn on water
- Hallway is completely dark so you have to find the light switches
- Our 7th bed was a small bed that we ended up not being able to use because it snapped in half so one of us had to sleep on the couch
Overall, this experience was very average. The fact that it is listed as Airbnb Plus, we feel, was misleading. Also thought the toilet paper situation was strange. For us, would not stay here again, but if you're looking for a more affordable option for a larger group in a great location, this place is not bad!
