We cannot say enough about how WONDERFUL Jesus and Carlos were. Not just in pre-planning but the entire time we were there. All their recommendations were above and beyond incredible and thoughtful - these two could have their own tourism company in Portugal!

We so appreciated the time they took to thoughtfully reply to our questions about touring the area and surrounding cities as it was SO helpful for the two of us, who had never been to the country.

The apartment is amazing - even BETTER than the photos (and the photos are wonderful). The interior decorating is beyond beautiful and we loved that Carlos showed us around and left goodies that were a special touch. If you are really tall the shower may present a problem but you can take the shower head off the holder and it works well for people above about 5'8" or so. (My boyfriend is above 6' and he towered about the shower head mount!)

The apartment is conveniently located to the green metro line which was perfect for everywhere we wanted to go.

Brick Cafe, as recommended in their Guidebook, was incredible and just down the block for breakfast - we went twice in four days (they only take Portuguese credit cards or cash) and the Time Out Mercado by the Cais do Sodre metro is 100% worth the visit.

The grocery store around the corner was wonderful too. The area is safe at night. It may get noisy in the evening if you leave the windows open because of deliveries and the garbage truck that seemed to come nightly but nothing closing windows couldn't fix.

If we visit Lisbon again we would ABSOLUTELY stay there and recommended it to anyone visiting.
