José has the combination I like the most in hosts: he talked to me every time I reached for him but also fully respected my privacy. He was also very understanding of my special needs. A very polite guy.
The apartment's location is unbelievable. It is right in the historical center, close to the most important sites and terraces with dramatic sunsets and city views. It is also very close to Lisbon nightlife, but right at its edge, in a way you don't stay in the middle of it. For a young guy like me, it was a bliss.
Transportation is very easy, although I don't think you will use it very much, since the apartment is so close to everything.
You'll find good restaurants in the surroundings. There are no big supermarkets close to the apartment, but the region is full of small shops that surprise you with all the supermarket stuff and exquisite wines.
I lived really happy moments there. Thank you José!
