Alaize was a very kind and generous host. She explained things clearly and even hung my laundry out to dry. As per the listing, this is very much a shared space and both Alaize is living here as well as her small dog and another housemate. The private room is clean and spacious, but there isn’t much natural light as the apartment is on the ground floor. Location is good and with the prices of accommodation in Lisbon, this is about as cheap as it gets for a private bedroom in peak season.
