We really loved our stay at Chiho and Nuno’s place. Firstly, the communication was great and they were very accommodating with our late arrival; thank you Nuno for carrying our massive suitcase up the 3 flights of stairs. The stairs are rather steep, it was good exercise for us and basically good training for Lisbon but something to think about if you have mobility issues.
The apartment is great, with a wonderful view of the Tejo river from the living room, and of the Alfama neighbourhood from one of the bedrooms; the view of the Pantheon from the kitchen window is pretty great too. Nicely equipped kitchen, clean bathroom, lovely living/dining room, and above all an excellent starting point from which you can explore Alfama and the rest of Lisbon. The subway station is just down the road, in the Santa Apolónia train station. The apartment is in a quiet area (for those of who are light sleepers). There is a folder in the apartment with really useful information and tips which we really appreciated. We couldn’t get a table at Sal Grosso, the restaurant down the road with amazing reviews so we suggest you book well ahead 😊
Muito obrigado Chiho and Nuno, até a próxima.
