Dora’s place is right in the core of the funnest part of town. This is exactly what I wanted. There is great shopping and food and breakfast pastries so close by. For emergency items there is a market store at the bottom of the building the apartment is in. The apartment is very clean, bright with windows at each end. All utilities work great. Body gel and shampoo and all soaps are provided. More than enough linens and towels. It is a great temperature, and if you want fresh air two of the rooms have doors that open out onto a usable veranda.
Just for information only. If you are sensitive to noise, it goes until about 3am. I was expecting this and really it is quite muffled when you are in bed if you have chosen to leave the fun outside. No buggy, I liked it.
There was some unexpected noise of construction going on on the building very near to this unit. It is during the day and normally this wouldn’t bother me because I would be out enjoying Lisbon, but I was sick for a bit over a day and needed some daytime bedtime which this interfered with a bit. And they start EARLY. I am unsure if the homeowner knows about it.
Also, if stairs aren’t easy for you, these stairs should not be challenged. I knew about them and was fine with them, but warning to those who may not be happy with a narrow, uneven staircase. It is 4 floors worth of them too. I like the workout and didn’t mind at all. And really, if you are not into climbing, Lisbon itself may pose some challenges as you try to get around. I thought it was all fantastic. Like I said. For your information only. Just being clear so renter and rentee don’t have issues with unhappiness on either side.
BECAUSE, Dora is a fantastic renter. She knew I was ill, and offered so much to help. If you need advise or just need anything suggested, her response with me was immediate and caring. She is just wonderful. She made my trip even better than her awesome room will. I would recommend her flat to anyone!
Thankyou so much Dora!
