We had a wonderful time staying at Catherine’s apartment in Lisbon. Her father in law Jose met us on arrival and was extremely helpful and welcoming.
The apartment is immaculate and spacious, the beds are comfortable and generously sized, and all the facilities such as washing machine/dryer, dishwasher, oven etc are new.
There were many personal and thoughtful touches such as a bottle of local wine, many maps and tourist booklets and the staples such as coffee, tea, salt, pepper, sugar etc were provided.
The apartment is situated right in the middle of the old town and you can easily walk to everywhere. We had a car and were able to use the underground garage. It is an extremely tight fit. It is not necessary to drive anywhere so I would recommend thinking twice before renting one.
We enjoyed a tuk tuk tour of the city, which covered most of the main attractions and is a welcome respite from walking as the city is very hilly with steep cobbled streets.
I highly recommended staying at Catherine’s when you visit Lisbon.
