Rita's place is as lovely as it looks. We had booked her place because we had to attend a wedding in the beautiful church around the corner, and the festivities in the Estuferia Real around the other corner. It was close to everything we needed, but it's also within walking distance of the Torre de Belem, the famous pasteis de Belem shop, the monastery and the tram line to the center of Lisbon. She has a long list with plenty of ideas for restaurant and things to visit.
We arrived early for check-in, but Rita's lovely sister was kind enough to drop by and let us in with our luggage. The flat has everything available: washing machine, hairdryer, iron and ironing board. It is spacious, light and clean. We spent two nights there and felt very welcome and comfortable.
I e-mailed back and forth with Rita a few times before our arrival, and she has always been swift and helpful in her response.
This is a perfect fit if you are looking to visit the neighbourhood or don't mind taking a bit longer to get into the center of Lisbon.
