Alexandra was the best host we could have asked for. She was friendly and welcoming, and gave us plenty of advice on what to see, where to eat, and how to get around. Her help was utterly invaluable when illness struck and we needed to find a doctor who could speak English. We would have been lost without her!

The flat itself was fantastic, very well equipped and comfortable. Everything we needed was there and plenty more besides. The kitchen is quite compact, but frankly you're in Lisboa, you should be eating out!

The neighbourhood was quiet and pleasant and felt very safe even late at night. It's within convenient walking distance of two different metro stations, a short and cheap taxi ride from the airport, and the walk into the historic centre is straightforward - though we recommend taking the metro back if you're not a fan of hills!
