Location couldn’t be beat and can walk to amazing eateries (A Nossa Casa and Tapisco are gems), have a morning bica and pastel de nata at Mantegeira, and many sites. Walk to Rossio station for day trip to magical Sintra. Everything is a 3 euro Uber/bolt away.
We didn’t spend much time at the apt or use the kitchen due to full days out but it was comfortable and convenient to pop in to drop things off or take a breather/freshen up. Kitchen seemed to be stocked with dishes, small appliances and such. Stairs are narrow and steep similar to most of Lisbon and the place is thankfully only 1 flight up. Apt is very spacious compared to others of our friends’ in Bairro Alto. The virtual key app is super cool. The street was noisier than expected into the wee hours even on weekdays due to the bars but worth the trade off for the location. Bring your own shampoo/conditioner as the all in one in the shower is basic.
Joana was very proactive in her comms even before our stay and provided us lots of info and suggestions to prepare for and during our trip. She also stayed in contact and was able to let us know when the apt was ready to accommodate our request to check in earlier due to our flight. Check out was smooth as well and she offered to arrange transport to the airport if needed.
Thanks Joana for being such a great host. We enjoyed your place and loved our week in Lisbon!
