Alexandra’s apt was perfect base for my first visit to Lisbon. It was close to all the major sites, various restaurants and cafes as well as the metro. I was traveling alone and found her apt to be the perfect size. Alexandra was a warm host, welcoming me in person and walking me through all the details. She was available and responsive when I had questions and even checked on me during my stay to see if I needed anything. I loved the thoughtful touches liked the bottle of wine, nespresso machine, and the ear plugs. Yes, the apt is located in Barrio Alta, with restaurants/bars on the street which remain noisy with people hanging out on the streets until 3-4am in the weekends. However, the bedroom is located facing the interior of the building, which helps shield noise. A wonderful stay — thank you Alexandra! I hope to return soon.
