So I don’t really like to write negative reviews, but it was one of the worst stay in Airbnb for me. And believe me I have a lot of experience.
First of all - the owner just forgot that I’m arriving that day. Even if I text him day before about my flight details and write again when was in airport.
It was late evening, around 10:30 pm and when I came by taxi to the address I didn’t find no one who might open the door. So I was standing alone in the dark with 3 pieces of luggage after 3 flights and 20 hours of journey. Not the best beginning, right?
He didn’t give any details how to get in and contact him. Ok, I found number in the app, as for messages I didn’t get response and stared to ask people on the street to give me phone for a call!!
Finally I connected Nuno and he said “Oh sorry I forgot about you “ Unbelievable!!
Ok, 5 min and I come.
Was waiting for 25… endlessly tired and hungry. Of course who cares? 🙄
Apartment.
It’s 7 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, you can’t leave anything in bathroom as someone always using your staff: creams, shampoo, toilet paper. And every time you go to bathroom you need to take all your staff with you.
Must say about atmosphere in general there. It’s super cold and uncomfortable. Nobody talks to you, not even “good morning “ from the neighbors, they just pass you like ghost.
I choose big house like this because I was sure it’s the place to meet with other travelers, but no, forget it. People are living there for years and months, they hate you in the beginning, because only few rooms are for strangers.
Room.
First thing I noticed - there is NO bed. Yes, there is mattress on the floor and quite uncomfortable.
Room is not simple, it’s EMPTY! Don’t look at pictures, they were taking with a good angle.
But the WORST thing - there is no AC and no even fan. With 40 degrees in Lisbon it’s impossible to survive. And noise… it will never stop for one second.
If you close window, there is no air at all. If you open - even with plugs you hear that noise.
So I stayed for 2 weeks, was suffering every day and counting the hours when it’s end.
Writing this review to avoid you to stay there and ruin your days in amazing Lisbon.
