Ricardo was an excellent host! I had a puncture on route and he even met me to direct me to his place and then to an affordable parking (parking is very expensive in Lisboa) T he apartment is situated in the town centre so we could walk to everything. Next time I will not drive as there was no need for a car. The apartment itself is exquisitely designed with lots of attention to detail and had everything we needed. Ricardo even picked us up on the morning we were leaving to drop us back at the parking as we were travelling with my elderly mother. I can't speak highly enough of him. The best host I could wish for, he has certainly set the standard as I am also a host in Australia and he has inspired me.
Thanks agin Ricardo - you are a champion!
