Excellent, despite 115 stairs
It would have been impossible for our host 'Inn Possible' to have been any friendlier, faster communicating or to be any more accommodating. Simply excellent. Two examples, he got his sister to check us in three hours earlier than advertised and rang a taxi for us when my Australian accent and a bad line prevented me from making th booking.
The attic apartment has very recently been refurbished and is quite comfortable. The bedroom is separate from the lounge, dining and kitchen areas which also contain two single beds. The kitchen was better equipped than is normal and more than adequate.
Two air conditioners, fast wifi, coffee pods, dishwashing sponge and liquid detergent, plenty of spare toilet roll, a bag of ice in the freezer be a welcome bottle of wine show more care and thought than most AirBnB accommodations.
The location (next to Clube de Fado) in Old Town is very close to the many of the better tourist sites and the quaint and authentic narrow cobblestone streets. Both the nearby streets and the apartment were safe and secure. The apartment was very quite, even during the festival.
Be aware however that there is no lift and 115 stairs (wide but some are uneven) are required to be negotiated to get to the apartment. For us, suitcases, groceries and water got heavy after about 80 steps.
We had a great time in Lisbon, thanks mostly to our host and the great apartment.
