We can’t say enough about how perfect this place was for us. For a start the pictures are totally accurate - which is always a relief! We were 2 adults and 2 kids and the apartment felt very spacious, especially with all the outside areas. The way the apartment flows is great; it’s hard to explain but you can walk around in one loop! (I think it’s built around the building’s central staircase?). The place is bright; well decorated; doesn’t feel sterile at all, and is very comfortable in general (including the beds). We had all the equipment we needed for the evenings we spent in. Oh, and the location is great! From there we were able to walk to the water front / viewing point / several supermarkets / recommended restaurants/ parks for the kids/ the castle / cathedral and importantly, out for drinks at night ;)
As for the hosting / communication, this is what made it even more comfortable. Maria and her colleagues were always speedy in getting back to us (both before and during our stay), and in my eyes it’s this kind of attention which makes all the difference! For example we had a query about something, and before long Bernard was at the apartment to help!
If we get the chance to visit Lisbon again, we hope this place will be free for us! We can’t imagine we would want to stay anywhere else. Thank you!
