Mafalda is an incredibly responsive, helpful and thoughtful host. Her apartment is exactly as pictured in the photos. We debated on where to stay in Lisbon. We are so glad we picked this apartment!
Location: Excellent. We walked everywhere. Lisbon is hilly, but it’s not that far to walk most places. We are city folk and so the street noise didn’t bother us (ie, regular trolley going by). I am a light sleeper and wore ear plugs. I was totally fine! You will be, too.
Apartment: From snacks and fresh fruit to soaps and shampoos to laundry and dish washer soap, the apartment has everything you need. The views - I was so happy to wake every morning to a cup of coffee and watch the world go by! Oh - and there is a maid who comes during the week, so it’s like being in a hotel, but way better. (We even had pizza delivery our first night when the kids were tired. So easy.) Only caveat: the apt might be difficult for elderly or parents with kids in strollers bc of the stairs at the very top.
Host: Amazing. From checking on us regularly to coordinating our airport transfers, Mafalda could not have been more hospitable.
Side note: I ran to Belém from the apartment and took a bus back. Easy and incredibly safe.
Book this apartment. You will be so glad you did!
