Enjoyed our stay. Recommended .
Hospitality : Ana & Lourenco are very caring hosts. Before finalizing the rental, we had several communications with them to make sure that the unit is suitable to our needs. We got prompt responses and clarifications from Ana. Once in Lisbon, Lourenco came to pick us up at the airport, drove us around the city before heading to the apartment. Lourenco showed us the main features in the unit, carefully explained how things work. There was a welcome bottle of red wine, some oranges , spring water, coffee and a hotspot ! This is really nice of them. During our stay, Ana & Lourenco often contacted us to see if we need any help and if everything is OK and suggested few places to visit. We really appreciate their hospitality.
Location: this is an old area, mixed of residential and commercial. The apartment was completely renovated. It is on the ground floor of the three storey building of 6 units. We had no issue with other tenants during our stay. Everything in the apartment is new, clean , nicely decorated, quite cozy. The kitchen is well equipped. No washer, dryer. The location is quite central, closed to everything. The main street with restaurants, bakery, supermarket is about 3 minutes walk from the apartment. You can find very good food and quite affordable around the corner. A few steps from the apartment there is a restaurant with excellent grill chicken and grill fishes ( peixe ). The whole grill chicken costs 6.5 euro. wow! Primavera restaurant on the main street is also very good with more choices. The metro station Arroios and the supermarket Continente is about 5 min. walk from the apartment. A few more stations (Rossio station ) , you are in the heart of the tourism district. We spent more time to explore this multicultural neighbourhood and emerge with the local people. They are very nice. We also bought the 72 hr hop on hop off ticket. We did all the 5-6 itineraries included in the tour which covered major parts of Lisbon with the bus, trams including tram #28, fenicular, By this way, we had the opportunity discover the diversity of Lisbon. A lot of walking . We really enjoyed our trip and our stay. It is now your turn to discover the city yourself.
