Location: the apartment is right in the heart of Rossio, a central place to stay in Lisbon. It is a short walk to shopping, restaurants, metro (restauradores to get to the airport), train (Rossio station)and buses. It is also a great walking area and just a short walk to many touristic sights.
The apartment is off the major streets and in a quiet residential area. Although there are many steps to reach the apartment it is worth it for the excellent views. From the apartment you can enjoy views of Castelo San Jorge and the water.
Comfort: I felt at home here. The apartment is very clean and everything is in excellent working condition. The bed and pillows are very comfortable and I slept very well every night. The kitchen is well stocked should you choose to cook. There is a coffee maker and the owner kindly supplies coffee(nepresso). There is a nice selection of books, movies and music. Since the apartment is two levels, it feels very roomy.
Value: extremely reasonable
Owner: Goncalo is wonderful. He is reliable. We set up a time to meet at the apartment and he was on time. He is also great at communication, he responded to all questions immediately. He was generous with his time, gave us restaurant options and ideas of what to do in the city. He had also provided orange juice coffee, some fruit and bread, a great touch. Goncalo is by far the best air BB host that I have dealt with.
