Very cosy studio apartment perfect for a couple. It is located in a very "chic" and "hipster" area with many restaurants and bars. The apartment is located close to the metro stop Intendante and near the center of Lisboa. Ana is very communicative and helpful host (even though we have not met personally). The apartment has basically everything you need for a longer period of stay (washing machine, kitchen equipment, iron etc.). I do recommend it.
However, the apartment has in my opinion two negatives, that can be important for certain people when deciding on the stay with Ana:
- Eventhough the apartment is clean, we have found cocroaches in the common area of the building (NOT in the apartment itself). This is probably because we are in a sea country + the building (as many in Lisbon) is really old. I was ok, but for someone who does not like animals like cocroaches, probably not ideal place to stay... :)
- The other minus is the noise at night. The apartment is facing terrace of Casa de Intendante, which is a bar. During Fridays and Saturdays it gets very loud until late night as many people hang out on the terrace (not sure how night silence works in Portugal) :) So if you are a light sleeper, close the window of the apartment and bring ear plugs...
