Maria and her husband are wonderful. They greeted us at the apartment and gave us excellent advice on using the subway system. Also, they provided a parking place in a secure parking lot which is amazing in Lisbon. The apartment is large with four bedrooms which is really nice. The only negative is the building is old and the electrical system does not work well. Also, the beds are not very high quality and the pillows are covered in plastic which was not very comfortable, luckily we had brought our own pillows.
There is a wonderful grocery store next to the apartment. It was really nice. The location is great right next to a metro stop.
