Sofia and Bruno made us feel SO welcome on arrival! They were welcoming, warm and friendly and I feel like they took our needs into consideration.

The neighbourhood was lovely; very safe and quiet, and in the perfect location - a stone's throw from the Bairro Alto, excellent transport links to get to the other areas of Lisbon, and near lots of nice little cafes and restaurants.

I had a broken leg and was on crutches during my stay, and Sofia was really helpful in giving us ideas about what we could and couldn't do. The suggestions in her book, left by both her and previous visitors, were massively helpful. We did as much of it as we could and all of it was amazing.

Sofia, whilst super helpful, was also wonderfully discreet. She was there to greet us and was on the end of the phone, but we didn't see her the rest of the time (we did bump into her mother, though, as she lives on the same street, and she was just as lovely). Sofia met us at the door on arrival and all we had to do drop the keys off on departure so it was a super easy stay.

The flat itself is very charming, quirky, small and clean. The location also made it feel as though we were living as locals. I can't recommend Sofia's place highly enough - perfect for a romantic getaway.
