Gustavo and Miguel were excellent hosts for my long-term (3 month) stay. The room is small but cozy/comfortable. The desk was perfect for my needs (I worked on my iMac there), and I enjoyed the view of Lisbon from the window. The washing machine and clothes lines made laundry quite simple and economical, and the kitchen is very well equipped with pots and pans and utensils—even an immersion blender. I enjoyed meeting the other guests from all over the world who shared common areas. The location is lovely and quiet—just steps from the Miradouro Penha de França, which gives a great view of the city below, and even to the Tagus. There are lots of cafes in the neighborhood, and it’s only 5 min walk to one of the biggest shopping streets in the area. The only issue I had during my stay was with a finicky hot water system that requires a very delicate touch and a bit of a learning curve to keep the right temperature in the shower—but I’m sure that will be satisfactorily resolved.
