Joao and Claudia have been amazing hosts. Everything was like they described it online. They gave amazing tips and were super responsive when we asked them questions (via Whatsapp). The apartment is up a hill, which can be quite exhausting with luggage, but in Lisbon is practically impossible to avoid hills. The city sits on three hills and you will always have to go up somewhere. The metro is super close to the apartment (like 5 minutes) and to the main “touristy” attractions. The location itself is non at all touristy and quite charming with some good restaurants.
Thank you guys for your charming welcome!
