We ended a 3 week trip to Spain and Portugal here in Lisbon at our host Rui's space. This apartment is a two bedroom, very large and included secure parking underground in a nearby location. Rui was very accommodating, waiting a half hour extra for us when our GPS directed us to the wrong street a few blocks away. He jumped in with us to direct us to the parking space and then promptly shouldered our heaviest bag for the short walk back. This apartment is very spacious and had us wishing we lived here! It is a three floor walk-up, though, for those not used to the exercise, and each floor with higher ceilings than commonly found in North America. The neighbourhood is very safe and close to the Metro and busses for trips to the old section and the airport. We bought a three day jump-on jump-off pass for public transport that gave us unlimited access to the subway, busses and trams and we used them all. It was very easy to navigate Lisbon this way and we did several times. Sidewalk cafes abound around the apartment and all over Lisbon. We even ate Nepalese late one evening a block away on our way back from 'the party' which is the old historical centre. We loved our stay in Lisbon and here at Rui's and would love to return one day. If you plan a visit here, be sure to ask Rui for directions to the 'best' pastel de natas in Lisbon!
