We always use airbnb for our Cory breaks and this is by far the best one we’ve ever stayed in. Our first booking with another host was cancelled which was quite stressful so we rebooked this apartment and I’m SO glad we did. The team are so accommodating and they do such a good job of looking after guests between them. There’s always someone on hand to happily ask any questions you have, and so quickly as well. They even offered to book restaurants for us if we struggled but luckily we didn’t.
We had awkward flight times but the team kindly let us check in early and check out late, as well as holding our luggage for us so we didn’t need to take a suitcase around on our last day which we really appreciated as Lisbon is so hilly.
The apartment was extremely clean and they put effort into the little touches which we really noticed. The location is perfect and right next to a nice courtyard for drinks, but you can’t hear any noise from the apartment. There’s an incredible pasta place nearby called Fabbrica where we had the best meal we’ve ever eaten, so definitely go there if you can!
The only tiny downside we experienced was that there’s quite a lot of stairs to climb to get to the apartment floor that were a bit slippery, which I fell down towards the end of the trip and hurt my ankle quite badly. There’s a lift you can use but it’s really small so we decided to always use the stairs. But that’s nothing the hosts can help at all but just go careful if using the stairs :)
