I relied heavily on reviews for booking this trip, so I’ll do my part too!
I was looking for a centrally located and comfortable bnb for my husband, 7month old baby, and myself and this fit the bill perfectly. I wasn’t sure how public transportation or even Uber would work with a baby, so I wanted to be able to walk everywhere and this location made it super easy. Of course you will end up walking a bit but honestly it wasn’t as much as I had expected and the hills were not as bad either. There are a couple of breakfast spots very close by and lots of great restaurant options at night. The place is very close to se cathedral which is another bonus!
As far as comfort- this is also an A+ as far as Airbnb’s go. I have back pain and can be very particular about beds so I was shocked when I slept an entire night through comfortably. The bed and pillows are honestly great! They even had a pack ‘n’ play for my son to sleep in which was perfect. The living room couch was small but comfortable. It fit our family of 3 perfectly.
I remember reading in a previous review about not understanding the washing machine and kind of ignored it- but then I tried to use the washing machine and was also very confused! It is a high tech/green/water conserving and super silent washing machine (no dryer- I don’t think dryers are common in Lisbon) which is nice but way fancier than most American’s. You can’t even look up an English translation of the buttons and cycles because they are all symbols. In the end I just picked a cycle that was less than 3 hours and used a tide pod and it seemed to work out fine.
There are heating/cooling vents in each room that can be controlled separately with remotes. That was a very nice touch since my baby needed a little heat but my husband and I were fine without.
They have a nespresso machine and tons of kitchen gadgets, and ironing board and iron (I did use it and it worked great), a clothing drying rack, and a hair dryer. It was nice to not pack or worry about any of that.
All in all this was a super great stay and would definitely come back if we were to visit Lisbon again!
