Wow, what a memorable first time using airbnb!
Our host, Camila made my mom and I feel very welcomed. She even picked us up from the airport. Totally unexpected and so much appreciated.The listing and description of the apartment was spot on. The apt.was spacious,clean, and with a full equipped kitchen. Great to open the red wine that our host left us. Since we stayed for 4 nights, our host provided us with extra towels and had wifi,cable and telephone service installed the next day.
The apt is located on a fourth floor walk up. Don't let that discourage you, the view is breathtaking. Pictures on the hosts website does not do it justice. It's much more.
Location,location, location...in the heart of the city. One street over from the famous 28 tram. That information came in handy when my mom and I got lost and trying to find our way back to the apt. There were so many local typical Portuguese restaurants and pastry shops near the apt.,that you do feel like a local. Not the feeling, if you were staying at a hotel. Since I am a light sleeper,you would expect loud city noises coming from the Main street but it was minimal.
Host, Camila was vey accommodating,open to suggestions,gave us tips and brochures about the city. She even took the guess work out on how to get to the airport. She took us back to the airport. Would so recommend staying at this location. 10 out of 10 stars. Thank you to our host for making our trip memorable. Would definitely stay there again!
