This was, for many reasons, a perfect base for a weekend in Lisbon. Reason 1, Isilda is a fantastic host. She is very communicative and service minded, she made all stages of our journey (planning, check in, stay, check out, transport to airport) easy. Reason 2, the apartment is genuine, clean and has everything you need. Our favorite part was the little kitchen table by the big windows overlooking Lisbon and the river. If you open the windows you can have a long breakfast in the sun with an amazing view:) Reason 3, perfect location. It is a lovely neighborhood in the middle of “old town” with lots of squares, restaurants, shops and a great viewpoint overlooking the city (perfect for watching the sunset). When you have explored the area around the apartment you can jump on the legendary tram 28 (1 minute walk from apartment) that will take you to most interesting places in this great town. We would definitely stay here again!!
