The apartment of Maria & Pedro was amazing and we enjoyed our stay!
Pros:
- incredible view of the river, the roofs and Pantheon
- appartement is much better equipped, than the pictures show (the kitchen has coffee-machine, boiler, toaster, mixer)
- the atmosphere created with decoration and some touches was really nice and we thoroughly enjoyed it
- the location couldn't be better - in the heart of Alfama, but also 6 min to the train/metro station
Cons - which we noticed only because we stayed for a month:
- it can be quite noisy (not even that much from the street, as from the apartment one flour down, which hosts large groups of people coming to party)
- internet connection didn't allow both of us to work normally. Fibre is coming soon, so this might be solved
- sofa is quite tired and tends to slide down:)
We can't say we've got any local tips or felt a hearty welcome, but the hosts were nice and polite, and answered our request, so it meets expectations.
We would definitely recommend this airbnb, if you are coming to Lisbon for a long or a short stay!
